[2005] Throw Exception From Web Service

[Jonny1409]

Hello,

I have a problem in as much as my message that is being thrown from my class, to my webservice, to my application isn't showing in the friendly format - it is showing a large box with things like system.web.services.protocols.soapexception.......

It does contain the text of my error, but I need it to look nice to the users.

My code is as follows :

Class

Try
IF
   Do stuff...
Else
   Throw New System.Exception("An Employee with this Reference already exists!")
End If

Catch ex As Exception
   Throw ex
End Try

WebService

Try
   Call Class.....
Catch ex As Exception
   Throw ex
End Try

Application

Try
   Do Stuff......
Catch ex As Exception
   MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
End Try

Can anyone help please ?

Can you please post the exact error message? I think that the problem maybe that you are not passing the correct SOAP message to or from the web service. Either types or names are different.

Sure - the message is attached:

I've tried putting a watch on "ex" and in the class it simply shows as "An Employee with this Reference already exists!"

In the Webservice is simply shows as "An Employee with this Reference already exists!"

But on my application's form it shows as per the screenshot and I've no idea why.

Hi vbud,

I've had a look for details relating to passing SOAP Messages, but haven't really found anything useful.
