Description

Description of problem:

On a system migrated to Pulp3:

Configuring a repo with this URL: https://stephenw.fedorapeople.org/fakerepos/update-errata/ which has no metadata, and attempting to clone, gives misleading error message:

"A no valid remote URL was provided."

Firstly, (poor English, please change to: No valid remote URL provided

but, checking on Pulp2 system I see it fails to with: RPM1004: Error retrieving metadata: Not Found

that is a much better error message in this case.
