What was the URL you were using when the error occurred?

This is one huge downside of ASP.NET that I'm not happy with and haven't found the solution for yet.

Classic ASP reports the module name, line number, and nature of the error.

As far as I can tell, you've only got two modes available for ASP.NET:

1. Give an inelegant error message with no useful info unless you happen to be running the exact same URL from the box that's serving the pages.

2. Have it display the module name, line number, and nature of the error, but in doing so, it helpfully includes links that anyone can use to view ALL of the source code, including dangerous items like the address, loginid and password for the database connection.
