Node startup errors are hard to understand during local development #905
Description
Description
When running the Base node locally, startup errors are sometimes vague and do not clearly explain what caused the failure. This makes it difficult to understand whether the issue is related to configuration, environment setup, or network connectivity.
To Reproduce
Clone the repository, follow the local setup instructions, and start the node with an incomplete or incorrect configuration. The node fails to start and prints an unclear error message.
Expected behavior
The node should provide clear and descriptive startup errors that explain what went wrong and how the issue can be fixed.
