Answer 1

You might have to put the Response.Write in the method that subscribes to the EndRequest (or the BeginRequest) event. I'm guessing the Response object hasn't been fully initialized at the Init stage.

Answer 2

Turns out there's a Web.config file in the Views folder, and one in the root. Guess which one I registered the httpModules in? Yep, the Views folder one. I moved it to the root Web.config and now it works like a charm.

Answer 3

My problem was that I had [HandleError] on the Controller Method, which was catching the error before my custom error handler had a chance to.
