Hey guys-

I have the following which has been driving me crazy:

I'm writing a test method for a custom controller, and the second try/catch always fails when I run the test.

The code works perfectly when invoked through VF, but the test method fails on the second try/catch every time...

Any ideas out there??

//Record Type could throw an error if the 'Name' has changed
        try{
            rt = [SELECT Id 
                         FROM RecordType 
                         WHERE Name = 'Standard Request'
                         AND SobjectType = 'Case' 
                         LIMIT 1];}
        catch(QueryException e1){error=TRUE;}
        
        //Contact record which matches the current user. Text field could be incorrect on User and throw an error
        //Cast to ID, then back to string, to get full 18 characters
        ID convertToLong = u.User_Contact_Link__c;
        String longId = convertToLong;
 
        system.debug('++++UserCon'+u.User_Contact_Link__c);
        system.debug('++++Long'+longId);
        
        try{
            c = [SELECT Id
                        FROM Contact
                        WHERE id = :longId
                        LIMIT 1];}
        catch(QueryException e2){error=TRUE;}
                  
        //If either exception occurs, then exit and throw a generic error.
        if(error == TRUE){
        
            ApexPages.addmessage(new ApexPages.message(ApexPages.severity.ERROR,'An error has occurred. Please open this ticket from the Change Request tab.'));    
            return null;
        }
