Error Spark reading CSV from DBFS MNT: incompatible format detected

I am trying to follow along with a training course, but I am consistently running into an error loading a CSV with Spark from DBFS.  Specifically, I keep getting an "Invalid format detected error".  Has anyone else encountered this and found a solution?  Code an error message below:

Code

file_path = f"dbfs:/mnt/dbacademy-datasets/scalable-machine-learning-with-apache-spark/v02/airbnb/sf-listings/sf-listings-2019-03-06.csv"

raw_df = spark.read.csv(file_path, header="true", inferSchema="true", multiLine="true", escape='"')

display(raw_df)

 Error

AnalysisException: Incompatible format detected.
