Handling exceptions in the cloud

I'm wondering how execution flow works in the cloud. What happens to my appharbor app is an exception is raised? Is it logged somewhere for me to consult, and is the app restarted? What's the recommended way of handling this?

    Hi Marvyn,

    for now you'll have to log exceptions for yourself. Exceptions could for instance get logged to a database. Alternatively you could use one of the logging apps in the cloud - for instance Hoptoad (http://hoptoadapp.com/) or Exceptional (http://www.getexceptional.com/). They provide nice and convenient interfaces for handling and getting an overview of exceptions.

    We're planning on adding more convenient exception handling in the future. I'll let you know as soon as we've decided on a model for this. If you try one of the cloud based options I would love to hear how it works out for you, as we're considering offering exception handling through one of them.

    Best regards,
    Rune
