InfluxDB crashes if unable to load configuration file

When I first tried to run the influxdb binary without options (version 0.7.3):

marc@basalt:/opt/influxdb/current% ./influxdb
panic: open config.sample.toml: no such file or directory

goroutine 1 [running]:

There must be a more graceful way to tell the user that InfluxDB cannot run without a configuration file ;)
