Arduino IoT Collector does not start, crashes with port not found
Bug report
Summary
The application does not start but crashes with an Arduino Port not being found.
Steps to reproduce
Build and run the application.
mkdir build
cmake -B build
make -C build
./build/arduino_iot_collector config/arduino_iot_collector.conf
What is the current bug behavior?
The collector starts but crashes with an uncaught exception, saying it could not find the Arduino port.
What is the expected correct behavior?
The collector starts and collects metrics from the connected Arduino board.
Relevant logs and/or screenshots
./build/arduino_iot_collector config/arduino_iot_collector.conf

Environment information
- OS (Linux/Unix, macOS, Windows) and version:
- Metrics type (Prometheus, file, Arduino, other hardware sensors):
- Building from source: Compiler and version (
g++ --version,clang++ --version):
Possible fixes
- Remove the uncaught exception, and create a better error handling
- Investigate why the configured port is not working
- Maybe there is no auto-detection. Use the
arduino-cli board listCLI to detect the connected Arduino board.
- Maybe there is no auto-detection. Use the
