#2506 [BUG] [flytectl] segfault when config file is missing Issue created by wild-endeavor Describe the bug flytectl segfaults apparently when the config file is missing. User reported when creating and listing projects. Issue went away when we created a sandbox style config.yaml in the .flyte directory.

INFO[0000] [0] Couldn't find a config file []. Relying on env vars and pflags. 
panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
[signal SIGSEGV: segmentation violation code=0x1 addr=0x0 pc=0xfef5a3]
