Read the error message. The whole thing.
This comes up even with coworkers who are allegedly senior software developers.
"It's just a white page it's not working"
"Ok well what does the console say? Network requests?"
"403?"
"Ok now what's in the response body?"
"The what?"
"Click on it. Then response "
"It says I don't have permission to view this page "
"Do you have permission to view this page?"
"...no."
I've had this and similar conversations far too many times, I keep professional but holy shit, and then when they do get a call going with a screen share they zoom past the error every. Single. Time.
