Issue #8796 has been updated by Nick Fagerlund.

Status changed from Investigating to In Topic Branch Pending Merge

I'm sorely tempted to [lolcat this sucker](http://ranchero.com/a404), but 
anyway, here's my suggestion: 

> ## Puppet Dashboard encountered an error
>
> Something went wrong, and Puppet Dashboard was unable to render the requested 
> page. Please contact your site’s help desk or systems administrator; if that 
> happens to be you, please check Dashboard’s logs for more information.

Basic, gets the job done and gets out, pretty much exactly what everyone else 
already suggested. [Submitted as a pull 
request](https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet-dashboard/pull/12).

Bug #8796: misleading error message
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/8796

Author: Nigel Kersten
Status: In Topic Branch Pending Merge
Priority: High
Assignee: Nick Fagerlund
Category: 
Target version: 
Keywords: 
Branch: 
Affected URL: 
Affected Dashboard version: 1.0.4


The general error message is horrible.


## We're sorry, but something went wrong. We've been notified about this
issue and we'll take a look at it shortly. ##

No-one has been notified, and no-one will come look at it shortly. 

### :( ###

What should we provide instead?

A suggestion to look at the log if you're a systems administrator, or to 
contact your helpdesk?

A default like that with a configurable string to display?
