[Seaside] Handling errors - staging/production

John,

You can configure the content rendered by your exception handler class using,

#titleForException:
#updateHtmlRoot:forException:
#renderContentForException:on:

Only WAWalkbackErrorHandler should be opening a debugger on the server, once you install your own handler which is subclassed from WAErrorHandler, it won't be doing it by default.

I have that with the Seaside class, but am not sure what to do beyond that (if anything). Should I send a redirect to an error page or handle the exception some other way. On my production servers, I often see socket timeout errors etc., and would like to just have these emailed/logged to disk, and not have the debugger come up in the image.

I've setup Postfix relaying to GMail on my laptop, and am using the WAEMailErrorHandler, but while I can get one message sent, I then usually get a WAIllegalStateException in the image. I'm not really sure if I am handling the exception correctly, but what I want to do it log/email it, and then have the app try to continue.
