Description Gonza 2015-09-01 08:28:26 UTC 
Description of problem:
Tried uploading an image to export domain with an incorrect path to the image file and got the following error msg displayed:
ERROR: not a gzip file
This could be misleading as this same error msg would be displayed when trying to upload an ovf image generated from VirtualBox.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhevm-image-uploader-3.6.0-0.2.master.git6846716.el6ev.noarch

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run "engine-image-uploader -e {export_domain_name} upload foo"

Actual results:
Misleading error msg is displayed:
"ERROR: not a gzip file"

Expected results:
More accurate error msg should be displayed. 

Additional info:
Suggestion: "ERROR: file does not exist"
Comment 2 Gonza 2015-10-07 13:22:15 UTC 
Verified with:
rhevm-image-uploader-3.6.0-1.el6ev.noarch
rhevm-3.6.0-0.18.el6.noarch

Output now shows:
ERROR: OVF data not found: foo
Must be a gzip-compressed file or a directory.
