No this is not normal.
You do have a problem, you are correct, and this does need looking into and fixing.
The odd single error every month or two is probably nothing to worry about unless it's always the same type of error, anything else should be tracked down and fixed or, as you say, you become desensitized and then anything could be creeping up to make a right old mess and debugging will be a nightmare because of all the flack you've been ignoring!

Hi,
just a short question:
Is a error label always equal to a error identifier?
So it does not matter if i search for an specific identifier (errpt -j) or a specific label (errpt -J)?

The year is always considered to start in January.
