Thr resource is not exists: ${resourceAbsolutePath}

Error message

Thr resource is not exists: ${resourceAbsolutePath}

What it means

AbstractResourceValidator.exceptionResourceNotExists throws this ServiceException when the storage operator reports that no file or directory exists at the given absolute resource path. It is a pre-flight guard used by resource validators before read/write operations. Note the typo 'Thr' in the message text.

Solutions

1. Verify the resource exists in the configured storage backend at the exact absolute path shown in the message.
2. Re-upload or recreate the resource via the Resources UI/API so the path is populated.
3. Check dolphinscheduler resource storage configuration (resource.storage.type and base path) points at the backend that actually holds the file.
4. Refresh the resource list; stale UI entries pointing at deleted files should be removed.

Example fix

// before: assuming a listed resource still exists
resourceService.readResource(path, skipLineNum, limit);
// after: check existence first
if (!storageOperator.exists(path)) {
    // re-upload or surface a friendly 'resource was deleted' message
}

if (!storageOperator.exists(absolutePath)) { throw new IllegalStateException("Resource missing: " + absolutePath); }

try { validator.exceptionResourceNotExists(path); } catch (ServiceException e) { if (e.getMessage().contains("is not exists")) { /* re-upload or surface friendly message */ } else { throw e; } }

When it happens

Trigger: Calling any resource API (read file, update, delete, download) whose validator invokes exceptionResourceNotExists with a path that was deleted by another user, mistyped, or never uploaded to the configured storage (HDFS/S3/local).

Common situations: Resource deleted from storage out-of-band while the UI still lists it; wrong tenantcode in path; storage backend switched (e.g. from local to HDFS) without migrating data; case-sensitivity mismatch on object stores.
