    def call_download_api(self, api: API, db_object: File) -> Tuple[str, str]:
        """
        Override DownloadJob.
        """
        raise DownloadException(
                f"Failed to download {db_object.uuid}", type(db_object), db_object.uuid
            )

Expected Behavior

Error banner message is displayed, file download animation stops, and "encrypted file on server" is shown

@gonzalo-bulnes Is this currently on your plate? Any objections if I label it as a good first issue before the hackathon?
