Configuration files located in config-auto require a management parameter to be declared. I added an additional line of detail in the error message to this effect. This error has historically caused confusion, and this additional messaging will clarify the fact that a management interface is required to resolve the error.

+1 to improving this message, but wording could be better: What about "Attaching to auto-started connections require --management option in the config file" or something similar that conveys that this is necessary only if controlling via the GUI is desired.
