improve error message that doesn't help at all; dataCorrupted #48

I except that my cilicon.yml config was invalid somehow, but failure message doesn't help at all to identify issue;

Propose to give at least filename or even line number which is invalid. This would help for learning curve.

Hi @jupe , we're just showing the native description of the respective error. This error indicates a problem in the VM source path. If you've tried troubleshooting but can't get it to work, I can have a look if you post your yml file here.

I know, unfortunately that's not human friendly at all which was the reason I raised this ticket. Could there be for example some message about "silicon.yml loading fails" etc which indicate it's user error, not tool error ?

Yes it would be possible, but compared to other features/changes it's currently very low priority. However we're very open to external contributions 😊
