Subject: [PATCH] Re #13616 More descriptive error message when properties fail
to load
On attempting a sequential fit, if the properties cannot be loaded, a
possible cause is that they have been cleared by changing the instrument.
Tell the user this, show them what the original error was and display
the error in the log too.
