Not sure where this goes in CF5.5. Place it in your error handler.
<!---if the request is ajax, throw an error that can be
returned to the client in a basic string and then log the error as usual--->
<cfset requestHeaders = getHTTPRequestData().headers>
<cfif StructKeyExists(requestHeaders, "X-Requested-With") and
StructFind(requestHeaders,"X-Requested-With") eq "XMLHttpRequest">
<!--- If you want to view the error in firebug dump the
error here--->
<cfheader statusCode="500" statusText="ColdFusion Error">
<cfabort>
</cfif>
In your js document:
$.ajaxSetup({
error:function(x,e){
if(x.status == 500 && x.statusText == "ColdFusion Error"){
//Server side code issue. Handle it gracefully!
}
});
You probably want to handle all server errors the same, although you can
customize the messages returned to the client. For instance, if you get a
SQL error you can do <cfheader statusCode="500" statusText="JDBC Error">
instead.
