>                 Key: IO-704
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-704
>             Project: Commons IO
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Hao Zhong
>            Priority: Major
>
> FileUtils.requireExists throws IllegalArgumentException when a file does not 
> exist:
> {code:java}
>     private static File requireExists(final File file, final String 
> fileParamName) {
>         Objects.requireNonNull(file, fileParamName);
>         if (!file.exists()) {
>             throw new IllegalArgumentException(
>                 "File system element for parameter '" + fileParamName + "' 
> does not exist: '" + file + "'");
>         }
>         return file;
>     }
> {code}
>  It shall throw FileNotFoundException, which is  more informative. Indeed, 
> another method of this class throws FileNotFoundException:
> {code:java}
>  private static File requireExistsChecked(final File file, final String 
> fileParamName) throws FileNotFoundException {
>         Objects.requireNonNull(file, fileParamName);
>         if (!file.exists()) {
>             throw new FileNotFoundException(
>                 "File system element for parameter '" + fileParamName + "' 
> does not exist: '" + file + "'");
>         }
>         return file;
>     }
> {code}
