• WHAT DOES THIS ERROR MEAN? WHAT SHOULD I DO WITH IT?
  • I got a popup labelled "Chandler: Internal Program Error". What should I do? The popup keeps coming up; what do I do? The text in the popup keeps getting bigger and bigger; what do I do? Where does this data go? How will it be used?
  • If there is an issue with a calendar entry that causes a Java stack trace or some other error and we need to send in the ICS file, is there an easier way of getting the entry then going to http://localhost:8000/cosmo/console/home/browse/USERNAME/Cosmo and clicking on each entry to see the date so it can be attached to a bugzilla report? Having the above URL list the first date or date range of an entry would be useful or some way of finding it.
