Moin,

I just try to upgrade my license server to V5 of ILS. I noticed some exceptions catched as I entered invalid URLs etc. While it is good practice to catch exceptions I prefer to have a more human readable error description rather than a cryptic stack trace displayed in such a case.
You could display the human readable description and for support purposes allow the user to copy a hidden stacktrace into clipboard in case the trace shall be send to Infralution support. This would improve the good impression license tracker makes already Smile

Best regards,
Stefan

Normally we only display a stack trace when an error is unexpected - to help us resolve the issue. I just checked and entering an invalid or incorrect URL for the Authentication Server or IPN.NET Server doesn't display a stack trace.

You are right however that the error reporting presentation for unexpected errors could be improved. This is something we will put some thought into.
