Description

Version:

TensorBoard 2.1.0

Issue:

TensorBoard doesn't check if logdir exists or not.
Not a huge issue, but a bit weird that there is no error message if I provide a non-existing directory. If one mistakenly provides a faulty path, they will probably only notice it when opening the link in the browser, after which they have to close the tab, go back, kill the process and restart it. It would be nice to have a warning at least.

Suggestion

Start Tensorboard as usual, but warn the user if logdir does not exist (yet).
