Confusing export error message

[tgerulaitis]

I've tried to upload a database with the put command, but it failed with an error message:

Unfortunately, the error message does not offer any reasons why it failed, making it impossible to figure out whether it was a configuration error, environment error or an actual bug.

The action here is to ensure that the original exception message is printer as well as our own message.
