Description stu robertson 2005-08-12 20:00:12 UTC
Currently, if the value of the RDC attributes specifying config or option files
doesn't resolve to a valid XML file, a crypic exception is thrown.  It would be
better if the RDC gave an error message indicating the problem, and specifying
the value of the attribute it failed to find.

I may take a swing at fixing this one, but wanted to get this into bugilla.

I've made a couple of changes based on your feedback -- client-side, a prompt 
will play indicating the file name that was not found/parsed and the ID of the 
RDC that was looking for the file, followed by a VoiceXML <exit/> with the 
error message as the expr attribute; and server-side, a marginally better 
error message will appear in the logs.

Thanks for the feedback.
