Hi @RobDineen ,

Maybe you tried to drop the table, but due to some corruption some files remained in the location.

Could you check if any files exist in the table location?

display(dbutils.fs.ls("dbfs:/user/hive/warehouse/season"))

If any files exists, just delete them and try to recreate the table.
