Description

When creating a data feed on a non-existing type, AsterixDB gives an error message:

Error: Invalid feed parameters. Exception Message:null.

The error message could be more meaningful by informing that user that the type is non-existent. Moreover, no stacktrace is printed to logs.

Steps to reproduce: simply create a feed on a non-existing type.

create feed Feed1 using socket_adapter
(
    ("sockets"="red:10001"),
    ("address-type"="nc"),
    ("type-name"="unknownType"),
    ("format"="adm")
)
