Hi folks, I am banging my head against a brick wall trying to interpret "error messages". Is there a straight forward dictionary of "error messages"? in my attempts at searching my "error messages" I get lots of good examples of other peoples projects with the same "error message" as mine, but does not help me as the answers are not relevant to my project.
Just to touch on the original question... The canonical solution is in fact to just search for the error message and work out what's happening to other folks. I originally learned to program before this resource was available, and I'll say it's now MUCH faster to learn new tech because of it.
And then the other solution is to do just as you did -- post to a forum. Usually it's best to include the actual code causing the error and the actual error you get.
