Do you know what errors to filter out?
Loading last updated info...
You should always keep on top of your RayGun crashreporting and not let the errors spiral out of control. If use RayGun with a web application, then you’ll frequently get a lot of errors with robots scanning the site and creating 404s.
❌ Figure: Bad Example – Most of these errors are 404s cause by automated tools scanning for vulnerabilities
Luckily RayGun has built-in filtering to hide these frequent exceptions.
To enable filtering:
- Under Crash Reporting > select Filtering
- SSW recommends you turn on the following rules
- Discard any requesters where the user-agent is a known crawler bot
- Discard any request for non-existent resources (404)
- Discard any requests related to phpMyAdmin access attempts
Now you should have a nice clean crash report page with actual errors.
✅ Figure: Good example – Now that the noise is gone, we can see the actual errors
