How to write error messages, part n: when reporting filesystem errors, include the pathname of the associated file. We take our example, as usual, from Oracle.

ORA-00443: background process "PMON" did not start
ORA-09922: Can't spawn process - background log directory not created properly
Intel SVR4 UNIX Error: 2: No such file or directory

Which is to say, not like that.
