Exception notifier
Once installed the exception notifier plugin will send emails to your whenever your application raises an exception.
It's a sinch to install making it no brainer for low/medium traffic rails apps.
Install exception notifier
script/plugin install \ http://dev.rubyonrails.org/svn/rails/plugins/exception_notification/Configure by adding to the list of email address you want to receive notifications your production environment
ExceptionNotifier.exception_recipients = %w(foo@bar.com) ExceptionNotifier.sender_address = %w(exception.notifier@bar.com)
Deploy and that's it, you're done.
Update - 11 Feb 08
Edge rails changeset 8669 breaks the plugin but Lourens has posted a neat fix.
