https://jira.opendaylight.org This file is an XML representation of an issue en-us 8.20.10 820010 22-06-2022 https://jira.opendaylight.org/browse/CONTROLLER-922 controller <p>Some XML configuration files packaged in features encourage users to make manual edits. But if a user makes a typo, it is not reported back, configuration file is ignored instead. More precisely, the user gets a message ending with something like<br/> etc/opendaylight/karaf/41-bgp-example.xml is not a config subsystem config file<br/> on level DEBUG and that is it. As default log level is INFO, currently the user is left wondering about what went wrong. Pre-karaf ODL builds used to print out full exception, which was helpful in localizing error in config file. This can be considered a bug, as existing functionality is not exercised just because configuration file comes from a feature.</p> <p>Operating System: Linux<br/> Platform: PC</p> CONTROLLER-922
