Using DB Loader to Create Table in Bigquery

When attempting to create a table and load data into BigQuery using the DB Loader node, the Loader node executes to 10% after which I get an error: “Execute Failed: No Filesystem for scheme “file””. On the other hand, when using the DB Writer node, my table gets created and data writes to the table, albeit extremely slowly. Any insite into what is causing this error in this node?

Hi @tobias.koetter,
Just wondering if you’ve been able to figure out what might be causing this issue.

Hello @Jason_Kish ,

the problem seems to occur only on some Windows systems. On these systems the Hadoop local file system, which is required to read local Parquet file, is not properly initialized. However so far we haven’t found a solution yet. We will continue to work on a solution and will hopefully release it with the 5.5.1 release. I will keep you posted here. I will keep you posted here.

In the meantime what you can try is install KNIME AP in another folder using the self-extracting archive (not the installer) and see if it works in the new installation.

As an alternative you can also select CSV as file format instead of Parquet

I’m sorry for the inconveniences.

Hello @Jason_Kish ,
I cannot give you an exact date but it looks like as if 5.5.1 will be released by end of July. I have no date for the 5.4.5 yet. I will report here as soon as I know more.

Hello @JaimeAlzx ,
can you please try it with a fresh installation. Maybe the update didn’t work properly. You can do this in parallel to the current installation. Simply download the self extracting file from the download page and extract it into any folder you have write permissions. Once installed select a fresh workspace and try it again.
Thanks
Tobias
