I am trying to throw errors to my custom error handling scripts (basically keep 24x7 erros but log to a file as well)

I state OnErrorResumeNext..

my current error is w/ a file copy... it returns a boolean false.

I then call my custom script to do:

LogAddMessageEx "ERROR", @V"job_id", "@V"job_name"", error

where error is my error message.

This does NOT write to the 24x7 log at all.

Since I want the script to also stop processing, I added a OnErrorStop within my custom script... but this seems to be ignored.

is there anyway I can have BOTH 24x7 log the error & stop AND have some custom error functionality ?

Are you sure LogAddMessageEx is executed?
Can you post the entire script or script trace file?

My call to the error condition is :

onErrorResumeNext
// Check for file or raise error
FileExists sourceCombine, fileOK

ifThen(fileOK, labelFileFound)
throwError("Could not write to the log file",5)

labelFileFound:

// rest of the script here

the function is :

OnErrorStop
LogAddMessageEx "ERROR", @V"job_id", "@V"job_name"", error
RaiseError error

The function is : throwError(message,severity)

i would expect that the error is thrown, and it is 'ignored' and the script resumes.

When throwError is called, it says to stop on error, and then the error is called by LogAddMessageEX, and even by RaiseError

in its original form.. NO errors were logged during 'Run now'

since I have turned off 'run in background'.. run now throws a message out to the log, but it is not a STOP... the script continues to process unless i call exit OUTSIDE the sub script

First of all you would need to add OnErrorStop to the throwError code otherwise RaiseError is ignored because of the OnErrorResumeNext mode.
Second, please run this script in the debugger and set new breakpoint on the throwError line. When you reach that line click Debug/Step In menu and check what is happening there.
