It all depends on the context. If it's a web application that can't connect to some backend service, for example, what exactly are you going to do with that information?
- lupire 4y agoI'm going to web search it and find advice from other users or devs. Maybe I need to use my email address instead of username, or delete my cookies, or something. If it's proprietary locked down user-hostile junk, then yeah, all I want in the error message is a statement of a refund on my payment, and a link to a competitor website.
- aeonik 4y agoDepends on why it didn't connect, right? Was it a timeout? Maybe an HTTP 401 Was it a DNS failure Was there a TCP reset immediately? Each one has a miriad of troubleshooting steps associated with it. Some could be local to the host, some could be network/firewall some could be from the remote host or behind that.
