We had an incident where the following configuration generic-worker.config setting was set in production:

> "signingKeyLocation": "not-configured"

The generic-worker refused to start up, and reported

> open not-configured: The system cannot find the file specified.

This message was confusing, until you realised that "not-configured" was the fake filename used in the config file.

We could probably improve this error message to explain that the file 'not-configured' is specified as property "signingKeyLocation" in config file XYZ (where XYZ is replaced with the config file that was loaded).

This is a nice-to-have, not a critical feature.
