Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by reproducing config initialization with offline mode disabled against a nonexistent server that returns non-JSON, then trace the initialization and request error entry points. Done means both connection failure cases return an understandable ConfigError rather than an uncaught parsing error.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement

long story - short story :
scenario: making config initialization with offlinemode=false, so it tries to connect to the config server.

expected results:
it will be connected to the server if it is successful, if failed, it will return east to understand the error message.

actual:-
on success - it's greater :-)

on some errors:
If the server does not exist: "ConfigError [httpGeneralError]: An error occurred while making the request" good response.

if the server does not exist and the page it reached is not JSON - got an error from undici about bad parsing
