Hi @sree018

dfFin = spark.read.format("cobol").option("copybook", "/cobrix/copybook/copybookpath.TXT")
.option("comments_ubound", "120")
.load("/cobrix/data/sourcefilevariablerecordfile").show()

Error message :

Maybe this is because Cobrix parser doesn't recognize the keywork 'EXTARNAL'. Try removing it from the copybook for all fields that have it.

Hi @yruslan

I tried by removing EXTERNAL keyword in copybook , but getting below error .

ERROR ANTLRParser: Syntax error in the copybook: Line 4:37 no viable alternative at input '01REPORTHOLDER-DAILY-TOTAL-RECORDEXTERNAL'

Attached copy book for your reference . Kindly check and advice . Thanks in advance . CBExternalblog.TXT

[yruslan]

Can you attach the copybook as a file? The one above lost all its padding and spacing.

[yruslan]

Oh, sorry, I see you did :) will take a look

[yruslan]

On line 4 you still have the 'EXTARNAL' keyword
