We frequently use the word "cannot" in error messages, this is the only occurrence of "can not". I am not a native English speaker, but according to various resources, the former should generally be preferred over the latter, and is probably what native speakers would expect.

Not sure if error message changes are semver-minor or not...?

As long as the error code doesn't change, the current policy is for error message changes to be semver patch.
