Description

Description of the issue, including:

• what you have tried

I've tried loading the data which is stored on an external HD, with the path being "/Volumes/PZ External/MIMIC_comp". I believe this is due to the space between "PZ" and "External". The files are indeed there, however I receive the error pasted below.

To resolve this, I've renamed the folder to be /Volumes/PZ/MIMIC_comp/ and everything seems to work fine.

-- Checking for data --

Data path: /Volumes/PZ External/MIMIC_comp/
Unable to find /Volumes/PZ External/MIMIC_comp/ADMISSIONS.csv.gz - exiting before build.
make: *** [mimic-check-gz] Error 1

• queries demonstrating your question (if applicable)

Start with the mimic-check-gz make target and trace how it reads and checks the configured data path. Reproduce the failure using the reported path, /Volumes/PZ External/MIMIC_comp/, then inspect the relevant script or command handling that path. Done means the check locates ADMISSIONS.csv.gz when the directory name contains spaces.
