Setup a static helper method and do something like public static void HandleError(Exception ex, String customMsg) { Exception newEx = new Exception(customMsg, ex); Elmah.ErrorSignal.FromCurrentContext().Raise(newEx); } share|improve this answer answered Jul 3 '11 at 1:51 Geo 28632 add a comment| Your Answer draft saved draft discarded Sign up or log in Sign up using Google Sign up using Facebook Sign up using Email and Password Post as a guest Name Email Post as a guest Name Email discard By posting your answer, you agree to the privacy policy and terms of service.

The stack trace gets populated when you throw the exception, so your unthrown exception won't have a stack trace. ELMAH, on the other hand, will catch the exception instance you're wrapping here -- which, if you look at it in the debugger, will in fact contain the stack trace, unlike the wrapping exception. Instead of wrapping in a System.ApplicationException (which, by the way you should originally have inherited from and nowadays is considered obsolete by the framework designers), you should just raise the original exception you have caught. As an interesting side note: Since the stack trace is populated when you throw an exception, this: catch (
