Description Douglas Smith 2020-08-13 19:09:18 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1868771 +++

It was reported that a user specified the "kubeconfig" (which is not required in OpenShift) option for whereabouts, using upstream instructions, and the error message was not informative.

The error message as reported:


```
  Multus: [some-component/something-0]: error adding container to network "something-0": delegateAdd: error invoking confAdd - "macvlan": error in getting result from AddNetwork: Error assigning IP: Unauthorized
```

The phrasing "unauthorized" doesn't produce any actionable output for the user.


To verify this bug, create a net-attach-def for whereabouts, and add the "kubeconfig" parameter and specify any invalid filepath.
