@atmandhol what is the output when you try...?

$ tanzu apps workload apply petc --local-path .

from apps-cli-plugin.

tanzu apps workload apply and tanzu apps workload update both return the following output

API Error name:tanzu apps  error:no matches for kind "Workload" in version "carto.run/v1alpha1"
Error: no matches for kind "Workload" in version "carto.run/v1alpha1"
Error: exit status 1

✖  exit status 1

Paired with Atman yesterday for a bit and we are unsure if we can differentiate between cartographer not present and cartographer not responding because of permissions limitations. If we can, we would like to use different messages for each case.

As a first step we should remove the catch-all condition that incorrectly reports workload <name> already exists which is showing up under both no-permission and no-cartographer-present states.
