Hi I am trying to change datatype of DOB column from String type to DateType but getting issue
"SparkUpgradeException: [] You may get a different result due to the upgrading to Spark >= 3.0: Caused by: DateTimeParseException: Text '7/8/1972' could not be parsed at index 0"

It's because the format you're using it wrong. Use `'M/d/yyyy'` instead.
