What a TYPO !!!

Wasted whole day and night working around the code... Banging head on keyboard to figure out "Why its not working on client machine" Just to notice that the credentials I sent to client had an extra 'i' :wtf:
Do not go where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

Those are the worst kind! I had recently coded an application that was used to collect data through a USB connection from a customer’s device as it ran. They would call occasionally to say that the application randomly stopped collecting the data. I would go through the code looking for anything, fixed a few minor things that really didn’t have anything to do with the data collecting but I fixed just in case. Finally, I asked for copies of the data that was being collected to see if I could determine anything there. The files looked perfectly normal. But one thing finally stuck out, the data collection wasn’t being terminated at random. The last time stamps were always close to 3:00 AM. I called the rep and asked if they had the Windows update service set to manual on the machine that was collecting the data. I haven’t heard from them since. :rolleyes:
It was broke, so I fixed it.

So, you're telling me the return value of your function doesn't account to something like "Authentication failure"? And log entries like "[timestamp] incorrect credentials entered" are not made? :confused: That would be a bigger WTF to fix.
