Hi Pascal, Maybe when your URLConnection.getInputStream() is called for an URL to a non existing resource you could throw a " FileNotFoundException" which extends IOException. About your remark:

For the moment we return a new File(tothenonexistingpath) in getCanonicalFileFromFileUrl where in the code is that? In your custom url connection handler? Can you give me more details?

Hi,

When handling conrefs to objects that no longer exist in our CMS, we would like to handle this the same way as regular dita files with the same issue.

E.g

<noteid="GUID-364D534C-E105-4CA7-81B5-FA910387D630"conref="./Jenkins/nonexistingfile.dita">

Results in a ‘[Target file not found]’ error with more details when you hover over.

For the moment we return a new File(tothenonexistingpath) in getCanonicalFileFromFileUrl, which results in the erro:

xxx\GUID-C2F39B76-FDC6-4E7C-80E1-36E7BC635FBA (The system cannot find the file specified)

Is there a way we can raise the same error from our custom code?

Kind regards,

Pascal
