This is harder than it sounds :) because the error is so random and intermittent, I might have to click around the site for a whole day before I get the error... then I've gotta download a 10meg log file, and try and find my request somewhere down the bottom. > b) if in all cases, the request is logged but you get that error then you > could try putting some simple code at the beginning of your page to confirm > that the page _is_ being executed. Something like writing a line to a file. Again, I'm not sure how I'd distinguish MY request from the others... given that it might take a minute, or an hour, or a day for an error to occur... I *wish* I could repeat the error reliably, so that I could get to the bottom of it. perhaps I could log page,date,time,IP address for a few days, then I could at least find my IP in the log, and the rough time of the error...
