 Description   

Currently we log errors/warning with only message text.

(1) We need to provide help text for the error/warning - This text should explain what it means and what corrective action should be taken - This helps user to interpret the errors as well as support to help customers.
(2) When a the error/warning logging message is called - the parameters should include two separate test argument - one for actual error/warning message and second one for the help text

Also related to this MXS-250 which is about additionally logging line number and file name from which log message is printed from- but that needs to be done for all log messages(Error, Warning, Info, Debug)

In the general case it is not known why something fails and what could be done to alleviate it, and guessing possible reason is not helpful. Where the explicit reason is known and corrective actions can be provided, that is and should be done.
