Title: Fix inferring module for unsupported data files
Author: albertvillanova (MEMBER)
State: closed
Created: 2023-04-24T10:44:50Z

This PR raises a FileNotFoundError instead:
```
FileNotFoundError: No (supported) data files or dataset script found in <dataset_name>
```

Fix #5785.

Comments:
_The documentation is not available anymore as the PR was closed or merged._

I think you can revert the last commit - it should fail if data_files={} IMO

The validation of non-empty data_files is addressed in this PR:
- #5802
