Return error messages from python script to geprocessing task

BradleyMontgomery

I have a script tool in a toolbox that I use in a geoprocessing service. The script tool takes in a couple of parameters, runs a python script and returns some parameters back to the flex application that called the tool through the geoprocessing service. Sometimes the python script will error for whatever reasons. I'd like to be able to return the python error message back to the flex application. As of now, when the script errors, I get the generic error type 500 - error executing function error message.

I call the tool this way:

gp.execute(params, new AsyncResponder(getResultFunc, onFault));

The onFault routine does this:

private function onFault(info:Object, token:Object = null):void
{
       Alert.show("General error \n\n" + info.toString());
}

How do I get the python error message to the onFault function? I'm sure that I need to set a parameter to return from the script and then somehow receive that parameter in the onFault function but I don't know the details.

Thanks!
