Bloody stupid error messages

Two things that make me want to yell at someone: "cannot find the file specified" and "cannot connect to remote server".

It's telling me that it didn't work. But what's the name of the thing it couldn't find? Someone's thought about error handling, but missed out the most important part: the name of the thing that didn't work.

I wasted most of yesterday because the thing it couldn't find wasn't pathInConfigFile but subdirectoryOfPathInConfigFile.
