Hi,

Thanks for your message.
It is a bit hard to really see where the error is coming from. Looking at the community discussion you can have a look at the following topics:

- https://community.databricks.com/t5/data-engineering/relative-path-in-absolute-uri-when-reading-a-folder-with-files/td-p/12518

If you give me some more background, I can dive a bit deeper in the problem>

Kind regards,

One of the reasons this error shows up is due to file path/name containing special characters in it.

If that is the case, could you rename your file to have the special characters removed.
