What's in your mind is the worst exception in programming?? My favourite is Out of Memory!

I can't remember.
I was brought up to respect my elders. I don't respect many people nowadays.

The fact you commented, says you did. Obviously, you and I are more subtle than the others. :-D

I'm sure there are lots, however, the one that is currently getting on my nerves is "File not found" being thrown by one of my Python scripts when I try to import a library, despite the fact I damn well know it's installed and working. Python seems very flakey when it comes to libraries, particularly on Windows. One day it works the next it doesn't.

Yes they are, but when they happen, it means I screwed up as the developer. So, I really hate to see them. "I am rarely happier than when spending entire day programming my computer to perform automatically a task that it would otherwise take me a good ten seconds to do by hand." - Douglas Adams

Back in my dark COBOL days "Abnormal abend", that could indicate anything.

"There was an error reading the document" – Adobe's PDF reader when there is an error in your PDF, anywhere in the document. It won't tell you which object or page the error was on, never mind what you actually did wrong.
Oracle also has a really informative kind of Exception: ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [12333], [205], [70], [164], [], [], [], []

Is this the same like BYOD? What I really like is BYOB (bring your own bottle) :-)
In my circles BYOB would definitely be an exception. Except as a present.

Seems to me that worst is being interpreted as either: nonsensical, useless (programmer too lazy to write a meaningful message), or a dreaded message, where something bad really did happen. Here is a nonsensical one: One recent message in my Windows-7 system event log was The service failed to start. Reason: The service finished successfully.

"Catastrophic error" is a real message I've seen years ago, from Windows XP.

Ah yes the compiler messages of MicroFocus COBOL !!! - miss one full-stop (period) and you would get 1000's of errors. Deep joy.

Hahahaha...Reminds me of a COBOL program I wrote in high school. I tried to write a COBOL without the temporary storage. I tried to go from the input field directly to the output field. My one (or two) page program generated 200 pages of error messages.

I always hated working in Oracle's PL/SQL. I'd get "BAD END STATEMENT", which I finally tracked down to mean "LABEL NOT FOUND". I guess it found the end of the program before it found the label it was looking for and decided it was the end statement's fault. I'm sorry, I wrote a better interpreter in high school when I made a program that would read symbolic labeled BASIC programs and generate the version with line numbers (that was required at that time). I was slowly wallpapering my cubicle with Oracle error messages and their real meaning. The Oracle database engine may have been programmed by the A-Team, but I always thought the programming interface was written by the F Troop. To this day, I refuse to do Oracle database programming.

SQL Server: "String or binary data would be truncated" which column? "aaaaah i'm not telling you!!" Drives me mad every time!
The offending value would be kinda nice to know as well! I once had to deal with this in a daily import file that we were processing from another company. The file had tens of thousands of records, and I wrote the code to import the data into our system. Someone at the company who gave us the import file liked to go in and make manual edits once in a while...yeah. The specs were not meant as suggestions. So I had one bad value in one field of one record in a large import file, causing the whole import to bomb, and no clue other than a guess at which columns were suspect. Thanks MS SQL. I had to implement a binary search to cast values in the file until I found the bad one. Good times.

The one that should be raised but isn't, or caught and simply ignored, causing the application to not work correctly with no indication as to why.
