Has the development error screen been removed?

When using 5206 and getting an applicaiton errror i get the nicely  
formatted view of the error in the browser.

Now, as of 5208 i get ‘cant display page’ http 500 and the error streams  
in the console ?  
How do i get my nice error screen ???

They dont appear in the console.

I had a similar problem with 5212 - there appears to be some problem  
with  
the following file. Or it could be something intentional going on that  
I’m  
just not bright enough to figure out.

On line #44 of  
vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action\_controller/templates/rescues/\_request\_and\_response.rhtml

```
41:
42:
43: <h2 style="margin-top: 30px">Response</h2>
44: <b>Headers</b>: <%=h response.headers.inspect.gsub(/,/, ",\n")

```

%\>

I was able to do a temporary hack to get my error screens back by  
changing  
line 44 to the following:

**Headers** : \<%=h response.headers.inspect.gsub(/,/, “,\n”) if  
response  
and response.headers %\>

Hope this helps.

I’ve had this problem as well–when headers is nil, it blows up.

Have either of you reported this on Trac?

Just an update that the patch was accepted as of 5241, so this should no  
longer be a problem.
