Hi,

I am not able to get this working. I did everything that was given in  
readme:

1. Included exception notifiable in App controller - include  
ExceptionNotifiable
2. Addded receiving email IDs in environment.rb -  
ExceptionNotifier.exception\_recipients = %w(removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid )
3. Added local address clear in App controller. –  
local\_addresses.clear
4. Mailing infrastructure is ready too - I am already using this for  
Auth notification

Now when i tried to test it, by introducing errors myself, unknown  
action, it doesn’t send me any mail. Am i being something very basic  
here?

Regards,  
Sandeep G

there are some errors that are counted as 404 for which (if you look in  
…vendor/plugins/exception\_notifier/lib/\* files) no email will be sent.  
maybe, try creating ruby syntax errors, rather than bad id’s or routing  
errors, or count\_as\_404 errors which an email won’t be sent for.

just a guess. could be something else, though.
