Exception Text

This field contains the text that provides information about the exception. In cases where the exceptions are recorded as a chain, the Exception Text field of the root exception (the start of the chain) contains the exception text from the other exceptions (Inner Exceptions) in the chain.

Inner Exceptions Tab

Inner Exceptions

If this exception is part of a chain, this field links to the record for the next exception in the chain. Exceptions in .NET can occur as a chain of exceptions. The first exception in a chain is referred to as the root exception. As exceptions bubble up through the call stack, many of the exceptions are single exceptions, while some will add to the chain. Usually exceptions are added to the chain to add more information. The chain is built using the InnerException property of a .NET Exception. The exception at the start of the change is thrown and the first exception handler is called. That exception handler may create a new exception with the original exception as it’s InnerException. The exception handler can also treat the exception as if it never happened, or just pass it along with no changes, and no new exception added to the chain. For the exception publishers, the exception text consists of information from all the exceptions in the chain, so that the user does not have to navigate the chain to find the desired information. For the database publisher, each exception in the chain is recorded as an Error Log record, using the InnerExceptionID field to link to the next exception in the chain. In most cases, people reviewing the Error Log records should only need to look at Root Exceptions (IsInnerException=0/false). The exception text for the root exception contains information from the inner exceptions listed below the root exception information.
