first try removing the spaces in the path then if it fails again post the output from the progress app by clicking the blue "i"

/bin/sh: -c: line 1: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `''
/bin/sh: -c: line 2: syntax error: unexpected end of file

first try removing the spaces in the path

as said remove all spacs and all "-" from the path to your file it shall look like

path/to/your/file

and not: funny characters /and - spaces/between - the name/to the file
