It is the Small Things that make me dislike Tags
Deep down in code (and under pressure), I was trying to deploy my WCF web service under IIS/WSS. I guess the pressure part is partly to blame, but nevertheless. I was getting the weirdest errors. I was even going as far as debugging my way down WSS while it served (or, tried to) my .svc file. It was all very strange, I thought...
Then a coworker told me that the url on the error page actually contains a bunch of information about the error that occured. Nice, would have liked to know that a while ago. So, I quickly wrote a two liner that could unescape the url and get me a message in a more readable form. The problem was this: A missing '%' at the end of the ServiceHost tag in the .svc file. MAN I HATE TAGS!
Rant off... Feeling better.
