Failed to read file metadata: {e}

Error message

Failed to read file metadata: {e}

What it means

Wrapped IO error in image_info: tokio::fs::metadata failed on the resolved path after security validation passed. {e} is the OS error — most commonly NotFound (bad path/typo) or PermissionDenied on the file.

Solutions

1. Verify the resolved path exists on disk
2. Check file permissions for the running process
3. Read {e} for the specific OS error code
