Description

Hi ,
I am trying to call the python script from the sql server.
EXEC sp_execute_external_script
@language = N'Python',
@script = N'import time
import sys
import codecs
import os
myfile = codecs.open(D:\SAP_Download\TPM_MATERIAL_MASTER_20191209_101848.txt, encoding=''utf-8'')
marylines = myfile.readlines()
myfile1 = codecs.open(D:\SAP_Download\TPM_MATERIAL_MASTER_20191209_101848.txt, ''w'', encoding=''utf-16'')
for line in marylines:
myfile1.write(line)
myfile1.close()
myfile.close()';

And getting below error
A 'Python' script error occurred during execution of 'sp_execute_external_script' with HRESULT 0x80004004.
Msg 39019, Level 16, State 2, Line 8
