That will get me the last error, but I am trying to get all the errors and
am looping through the innerException object. The GetBaseException also
gets me the last one, which would be fine. But I found that the error
response I get back is unreadable.
If I don't do the Application_Error, I get this error:

Either way there is nothing like: BC30451: Name 'SearchType' is not
declared.
Where do you get that?
These message are pretty useless without it.
