Error when cow_tool convert in Windows OS

[carlosug]

Hi community!

I got an error [1] using Windows OS running cow_tool convert. My file directory data has:

• tableGames.csv
• tableGames.csv-metadata.json

I then do:

cow_tool convert data\tableGames.csv

Expected result is a ttl file; instead I got the following error:
[1]:

Converting .\data\rulesetPeriods.csv to RDF
Initializing converter for .\data\rulesetPeriods.csv
Processes: 4
Chunksize: 5000
Something went wrong, skipping .\data\rulesetPeriods.csv.

You can get the files here: https://github.com/MaastrichtU-IDS/play-fair/tree/main/data

Any idea how to solve it?

even creating a python virtual environment I get the same error [1].

best,
