Description:
Wrong error info when import non-existent disk image from virt-manager GUI

Version:
virt-manager-0.9.0-31.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Lauch virt-manager GUI.

2.Create a new guest,choose "Import existing disk image",click "Forward",input non-existent disk image path in input field "Provide the existing storage path",eg:sdfsfd,error shows as below:
Size must be specified for non-existent volume path '/root/sdfsfd

Actual results:
As description.

Expected results:
No input field in virt-manager GUI for input size,the error info is confusing for users,changed to something like "The volume path doesn't exist".

Additional info:
It can also be reproduced on rhel7.

Comment 4 XiaoyunHu 2016-06-23 03:23:32 UTC
I can reproduce this bug with package:
virt-manager-1.2.8-1.el7.noarch

Steps are the same as description above.

Then try to verify with new build:
virt-manager-1.4.0-1.el7.noarch

Steps:
1.Lauch virt-manager .
#virt-manager

2.Create a new guest,choose "Import existing disk image",click "Forward",input non-existent disk image path in input field "Provide the existing storage path",eg:sdfsfd

Results:
After step2, An input error "The import path must point to an existing storage" pops up.

According to the result above in the latest version of virt-manager, move this bug from ON_QA to VERIFIED.
