python wheel cannot be installed as library.

When I try to install the python whl library, I get the below error. However I can install it as a jar and it works fine. One difference is that I am creating my own cluster by cloning an existing cluster and copying the whl to a folder called testing in dbfs.

Is it mandatory that the whl should be in dbfs:/FileStore/jars/ folder?

Library installation attempted on the driver node of cluster 0930-154215-fcm3m6pc and failed. Please refer to the following error message to fix the library or contact Databricks support. Error Code: DRIVER_LIBRARY_INSTALLATION_FAILURE. Error Message: org.apache.spark.SparkException: Process List(/databricks/python/bin/pip, install, --upgrade, --find-links=/local_disk0/spark-1032c562-aec3-4228-b221-6a5b507e6b65/userFiles-5ea00ae0-697e-4804-98e4-987fd932aebe, /local_disk0/spark-1032c562-aec3-4228-b221-6a5b507e6b65/userFiles-5ea00ae0-697e-4804-98e4-987fd932aebe/shared_functions-1.0.0.0-py3-none-any.whl, --disable-pip-version-check) exited with code

@Vikas B : What DBR version you are using?

Could you please do

%sh

ls -l /dbfs/FileStore/shared_functions-1.0.0.0-py3-none-any.whl

from a notebook

@Sivaprasad C S This is what I get when I run that command.

-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20951 Oct 12 16:51 /dbfs/FileStore/shared_functions-1.0.0.0-py3-none-any.whl

I think you have - (dash) in some places and _ (low dash) in others. Please unify.

The issue was that the package was renamed after it was installed to the cluster and hence it was not recognized.
