Stuck on an issue?

Lightrun Answers was designed to reduce the constant googling that comes with debugging 3rd party libraries. It collects links to all the places you might be looking at while hunting down a tough bug.

And, if you’re still stuck at the end, we’re happy to hop on a call to see how we can help out.

Give `http://melta.no` troubleshooting help link when plugin fails, with CTA to Slack in web copy

See original GitHub issue

Spec (edited by AJ):

When Meltano fails, we’ll print a standard error message:

[Error description text.]

To contact the Meltano team and access troubleshooting help and resources, visit http://melta.no

Orig. issue description (Douwe)

When meltano invoke or meltano run fails, a user is more likely to manage to solve the issue and stick with Meltano if they join Slack than if they don’t, as evidenced by the number of people who responded to the survey saying the docs weren’t always helpful, but the Slack community was. I imagine a good amount of people that try us out and churn would not have if they had known about Slack. That also lets us reach out to them to learn more about their use case and experience, even if they do end up churning.

So I think we should recommend joining Slack in the product wherever that makes sense.

@tayloramurphy Wdyt? Seems like an easy change with potentially large impact.
