    Yeah - I was using the name of the file returned by /home_content end point to then create a load job. However, it seems that DB2 on Cloud persists the original filename.

    So e.g. if you were uploading a file called People.csv, you'd make your call to /home_content and get a response with a name like "xxxx_xxxx_xx_People.csv". When then creating a load job, you just need to use People.csv as the filename rather than "xxxx_xxxx_xx_People.csv".

    Thank you. this resolved my issue. unlike the agents who seem to be more interested in playing traffic cops than actually helping out.

    Uma, infact playing traffic cops relieve stress which can help with anxiety:)

    Hey Vijayalakshmi,

    I ran into this issue as well this morning. I was trying to upload a csv file from my local computer to a Db2 service when I ran into this error. I was able to localize the error to the file name.

    Original File Name
    > Memphis_Police_Department__Public_Safety_Incidents_20211011.csv

    Updated File Name
    > MPD_Incidents_Original.csv

    I think the error was caused by either:
    (1) long file name
    (2) double underscore in file name

    I also ran into this error while trying to load a csv file into a Db2 instance.

    I fixed by changing file name. I think it was either too long or b/c it contained double underscore.

    Orignal
    > Memphis_Police_Department__Public_Safety_Incidents_20211011.csv

    Changed
    > MPD_Incidents_Original.csv

    Hi!

    Vijayalakshmi Arjunan

    It looks like the error is related to loading data from an external source, possibly IBM Cloud Object Storage, and DB2 is not recognizing the file reference correctly. One thing to check is whether the full path to the file is correctly formatted and enclosed in the required syntax. Also, ensure that your DB2 instance has the right permissions to access the storage location. If you are using the LOAD command, try specifying the correct file format and location reference. You might also want to verify if the integration between DB2 and Cloud Object Storage is properly configured.

    Best Regards: Blythe Winslow
