Well, one may have nothing to do with the other but I don't believe you should be using Basic auth. Seems like you should be using Windows. I take it you are using SharePoint on-premises? What version? Often, if memory serves, that error can be generated by having some special characters in the folder name or the folder name starting with a numeral.
