Why am I getting "no such file or directory" when connecting to Astra for the workshop exercise?

I am not able to connect python or node js to Cassandra despite following all the steps. Error seems to be in directory

gitpod /workspace/cassandra-workshop-series/week3-AppDev-crud/crud-nodejs $ node Ex02_Connect_to_Cassandra.js
========================================
Start exercise

The problem you're facing appears to be due to an incorrect path to your Astra secure connect bundle.

In the error message, you've configured it with an incorrect Windows path:

/C:/Users/10651748/Downloads/secure-connect-killrvideocluster(2).zip

In step 3c of the workshop instructions, you needed to upload your bundle to Gitpod. Since you're running on Gitpod, it needs to be a Linux path.

Bettina has explained why it doesn't work in question #6499. Have a look at her answer if you still need assistance. Cheers!
