If you're debugging in your local dev environment, you can attach to w3wp.exe (or click the "Run" button in the Visual Studio project if using 2010 or 2013 templates).
Either way, you can often find information about the error that occurred either in the Windows Event Logs or in the SharePoint logs at "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions(some version number)\Logs".
You can also turn custom errors off and stack trace to true in the web.config file to see more detailed information about the error in the browser as soon as it happens. See here: http://blog-sharepoint.blogspot.com/2009/12/sharepoint-webconfig-how-to-show-full.html
