> Currently, when airflow encounters an encrypted Variable value or encrypted password and extra params field in Connection, useless message is flashed on the webserver that does not help pin down which Variable (i.e. key) or Connection (i.e. login) is affected or which configuration element is missing. 
> Instead a message like "Can't decrypt _val, configuration is missing" is displayed. Short of looking in the code base, there is no way to know what the problem is. 
> I propose adding both the Variable key or Connection login and the name of the missing configuration element, FERNET_KEY in this case to the flashed message.
