Subject: [PATCH proxmox] rest-server: throw meaningful error if template file does not exist
Date: Fri, 26 Jun 2026 11:32:22 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260626093248.271176-1-c.heiss@proxmox.com> (raw)
Otherwise, users just fail on startup while constructing an `ApiConfig`
instance, with this pretty unhelpful error message:
Error: No such file or directory (os error 2)
Give some context to make it easier to trace down these errors in the
future.

Noticed this while building the latest master of
proxmox-datacenter-manager, which requires a new template as of
60a1c406 ("server: add and serve template for novnc")
.. but the corresponding package hasn't been bumped yet.
