I’ve just tested this and reproduced the error. I will look into this and let you know as soon as we have a fix for it. Meanwhile, please continue with the course (or other courses), since this is not an essential section of it.
I’ve been doing some tests and couldn’t fully solve the issue. However, I’ve noticed that the error only appears the 1st time you run the command. If you run the command a 2nd time, it will work fine. Since it is not an essential part of the course, I will leave it like this for the moment, adding some comments in the Exercise in order to advertise about this behavior.
