Hi all,

The delta-lake demo used to run fine for us around October 2024. Reinstalling it now, it fails on initialisation.

Using runtime version 15.4 on a trial Databricks installation, and executing

 

dbdemos.install('delta-lake', overwrite=True, use_current_cluster=True)

 

Frame 2 in 01-Getting-Started-With-Delta-Lake has the line and error:

 

%run ./_resources/00-setup $reset_all_data=false
Notebook not found: Users/[redacted]/Demos/delta-lake/config

 

and indeed it does not exist. Tracing into the 00-setup notebook, the call is definitely there.

Looking at the subsequent frames in notebook 01-Getting-Started-With-Delta-Lake, their outputs are all listed as "Command skipped". This is different to what is usually seen in the demos. Also, none of the other DE demos that I installed give problems - they install and run fine, and show valid outputs for each frame prior to running them myself.

Easiest way to test/reproduce, is to run the install command listed at the top, and to check whether 01-Getting-Started-With-Delta-Lake frame 2 runs or not.
