outlier_lynn: Nude Programming; fewer distractions (working)

Right pocket, wrong jeans

Every once in awhile I fall into a programmers trap.

I am working on some scripts for a client. I have a complete duplicate of his website include his database on my laptop. I pushed it along a bit further and was greeted with a fatal error message.

The message didn't make any sense. It said I was redefining a class on line 15. But I wasn't do that at all. It took me a long time to see that I had followed a link which gave me the error on the REAL website where that error was legit.

This has been an interesting (unbillable) hour of muttering and cursing.

Love.
