I should have noted this before:  You should almost always just
go ahead and append the actual error messages (not pages and
pages of them, but you're only talking about 15 lines) rather
than a description of them, which may involve an unwarranted
conclusion or unspoken assumption.  Maybe it is just a path
error, but that seems like an odd thing to find in a stock
system.
