Today I found a GREAT blog post that explains exactly how to turn that awful
'Unexpected Error' screen off and let's you see the exception:
In the web.config:
Change
<SafeMode MaxControls="200" CallStack="true"
to
<SafeMode MaxControls="200" CallStack="false"
I found this here:

For those who may run into the same issue, I have found a solution:.
First of all, the error was that I was placing the MossMenu outside of the
scope of the DataSource that I was referencing. I didn't realize aspx pages
used scope. Seems that if you want to reference a DataSource that lives
inside an asp:ContentPlaceHolder, you need to have the other control in that
ContentPlaceHolder as well.
How I figured it out: Inside MossMenu I am overriding the OnInit and OnLoad
methods of the base class and doing some simple logging inside a try-catch.
Guess what? I logged an exception in the OnLoad, telling me that my control
couldn't find the datasource I was looking for. Thanks MOSS for eating that
exception.....

Hi Wei Lu,
I understand that the MossMenu code is not supported, that's not my question
however. I am asking how I can get sharepoint to stop eating errors.
Obvously there is an exception being thrown somewhere that MOSS translates
into a nice and friendly and utterly useless "An Unexpected Error Has
Occured" message. Since I can't find anything in the MOSS log files, am I to
assume that I am out of luck? Or is there a way I can make MOSS be more
verbose in its error logging etc.
Regardless of the code I am using (be it my own code or the MossMenu), I
don't see how it's acceptable for MOSS to give me such a useless error
without logging the actual real problem somewhere. I'd be perfectly happy if
I got an error page similar to aspx when I set <customErrors mode="Off" />.
Thanks,
Joe
