Mvc Web application illustrating the issue

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.1.1)
Gecko/20090715 Firefox/3.5.1 (.NET CLR 4.0.20506)


On Mono, [HandleError] attribute does not work as it does with Microsoft.NET:
its OnException method throws exception itself in the following line:

filterContext.HttpContext.Response.TrySkipIisCustomErrors = true;

In Mono, TrySkipIisCustomErrors property of System.Web.HttpResponseWrapper
class apparently is not implemented (checked both trunk and 2.4 branch).

As a result, the control is passed to the general ASP.NET exception handler,
configurable in Web.config using <customErrors> option.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Create a default MVC project in Visual Studio (its HomeController has
[HandleError] attribute set).
2. Add <customErrors mode="On" /> option to Web.config (otherwise,
HandleErrorAttribute does nothing).
3. Make some method of the controller (e.g. Index) throw an exception.
4. Launch the Web application (to do that on Mono, I used Publish feature of
the Visual Studio and then run xsp2 in the published directory).
Actual Results:  

After opening the Web application in the browser, standard ASP.NET error page
"Server Error in '/' Application" appears, instructing how to modify Web.config
to see the actual error.

Expected Results:  

The expected result was to see the Web page rendered by MVC.


Please find attached an Mvc Web project. It is basically a default Mvc project
created by Visual Studio, with modifications described in "steps to reproduce"
above. Additionally, a copy of HandleErrorAttribute class has been added, named
MyHandleErrorAttribute, that logs exceptions to the console in OnException
method. HomeController uses [MyHandleError] attribute to demonstrate the
exception; to see the actual reported behavior, change it to the default
[HandleError].

The archive also contains a the published version of the project, which can be
run directly in mono using xsp.
