HDFS directory not copied

I am copying a directory from local file system to HDFS using this command :hadoop fs -copyFromLocal d:\Profiles\snijhawan\Downloads\datamaster\datamaster /user/sahilnijhawan19179219/retail

But it is giving copyFromLocal: unexpected URISyntaxException .

Please anyone help me out in this.

Hi @Sahil_Nijhawan,

You will not be able to copy files from your local machine to HDFS from command line as ports will be blocked. Please use Hue for the same.
