This means the path to the file you typed is not valid, the file is not there.

Can you check in the Data/DBFS page if the file is there (or via dbutils.fs.ls)?

[Venky]

No, file path is correct

[KumarPalle]

I am wondering how it worked for you. I have tried the same steps and no

luck. using dbutils i am finding file but when i read using pandas its saying no such file or directory exists.

dbutils.fs.ls("FileStore/shared_uploads/kumarpalle/Covid19Europedata.csv")

 

Please help here. uploaded the same file that am working on.

Also, please check if you have applied any settings that we are missing.

Hi Kumar,

you're almost there, try this:

df1 = pd.read_csv("/dbfs/FileStore/shared_uploads/kumarpalle/Covid19Europedata.csv")

df1.describe()

Cheers!

Hi @Alexis​ ,

Thanks for quick response. It above method didn't worked but reading using spark and appending to Pandas it worked.

Here are the steps that i followed.

df1 = spark.read.format("csv").option("header", "true").load("dbfs:/FileStore/shared_uploads/kumarpalle/Covid19Europedata-1.csv").toPandas()

df1.head()

@Venky D​ Please follow the above steps to read using Spark as pandas doesn't work through dbfs.

same issue here... .toPandas() was also my only solution... otherwise error!

[SanchesSan]

I did the same as you, but the reading does not work.

Can you help me? thanks

[Venky]

Please help me on this error

can you try without the dbfs part?

so /Filestore/tables/world_bank.csv

[Venky]

it's not working

[Hubert-Dudek]

I see that you are using databricks-course-cluster which have probably some limited functionality. Not sure where dbfs is mounted there. When you are using dbutils it display path for dbfs mount (dbfs file system).

Please use spark code instead of pandas so it will be executed properly:

df = spark.read.csv('dbfs:/FileStore/tables/world_bank.csv')
display(df)

[Alexis]

ops I didn't see the other answers, anyway here you have how to use %fs magic to do the same that dbutils.fs.ls() utils.

Just before to create the spark data frame, check if the file exists in the mentioned path.

You can use the %fs magic like this:

Pls help,

I have the same problem
