Code d'état : 409, description : « The specified path already exists

[amolt]

Hello,

Since yesterday, I have this error when executing a Gen2 dataflow:
"Status code: 409, description: "The specified path already exists.". Details: Reason = DataSource.Error;DataSourceKind = Lakehouse;Url = https://onelake.dfs.fabric.microsoft.com/...."
Do you have any idea what caused this error?

Thanks

Hi @amolt ,
Thanks for using Fabric Community.

The error message you are seeing when executing a Gen2 dataflow indicates that the specified path already exists in the destination.

This error can occur if you are trying to create a new table in the destination, but a table with the same name already exists in the specified location. The error message indicates that the path already exists, which means that the table you are trying to create has the same name and location as an existing table.

To resolve this issue, you can try a few things:

1. Check the path: Make sure that the path you are specifying for the destination is correct and whether any table with the same name already exists in the destination.

2. Rename the file or folder: If a table with the same name already exists in the specified location, you can try renaming the table to a different name.
   
   

Hope this helps. Do let us know if you have any further queries.

Hi @Anonymous ,

Thanks for your reply.
It's perfectly logical. Nevertheless, I haven't changed anything in the configuration of my destinations. In fact, they're all identical and I've only had the problem on one destination.
When initially configuring my destinations, I use the new table creation function. So far (and this is still the case on other dataflows) I've never changed the configuration of these destinations, and it hasn't caused any problems.
Thanks again for your reply.
