Re: [Libvir] PATCH: More useful error messages with missing certs

On the server end if you try to start the server with TLS enabled and you don't have the certs setup, you get a cryptic: gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file: Error while reading file. Rather useless the gnutls error message not telling you what file was missing. Similarly with virsh: # ~/usr/bin/virsh --connect qemu://localhost/system list libvir: Remote error : Error while reading file. Since GNU TLS doesn't even tell you the actual problem - was it wrong permissions, or missing file altogether, I decided its better to do an explicit 'stat' check ahead of time.
