[GNC] Session Error: failed to get_backend using access method "C"

[Lipp F.]

Still not working, different error though. Tried uppercase C and
lowercase c as well:

C:\tools\gnucash\bin>gnucash-cli.exe --report run --name="Net Worth
Linechart" --output-file=r-nwl.html
/C/Users/*****/Downloads/gnuCash-test-2/t14.sqlite3.gnucash
* 11:16:08  WARN <gnc.backend.dbi> [GncDbiBackend<Type>::session_begin()]
Sqlite3 file /C/Users/*****/Downloads/gnuCash-test-2/t14.sqlite3.gnucash
not found
* 11:16:08 ERROR <gnc.gui> [scm_cleanup_and_exit_with_failure()] Session
Error: Sqlite3 file
/C/Users/*****/Downloads/gnuCash-test-2/t14.sqlite3.gnucash not found

On the other hand, if the file paths have no directory,  gnucash-cli works
as expected.
