[Tile-serving] [openstreetmap/osm2pgsql] Flex output returns PBF error: invalid BlobHeader size (#1348)

[Sarah Hoffmann]

Your command line parameters are wrong. `-s` is the option for `--slim` which does not take a parameter. Therefore, osm2pgsql is trying to read the lua file as the input file. To parse a file with the flex output you need:

    osm2pgsql -s -O flex -S ~/git/osm2pgsql/flex-config/generic.lua  -d pgosm_flex  ./district-of-columbia-latest.osm.pbf 

As this happens regularly, we should enhance the error `ERROR: Cannot detect file format` and print out the name of the file it was trying to read.
