JFolder: :files: Path is not a folder. Path: D:\XamppInstalation\htdocs\joomla\modules\mod_helloworld2\sql\mysql\updates

Question

I followed the tutorial on the Joomla website about Creating a simple module/Using the Database. I created the following XML file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<extension type="module" version="3.1.0" client="site" method="upgrade">
    <name>Mod_Helloworld2</name>
    <author>Dhany</author>
    <version>1.0.0</version>
    <description>Hello World 2 with database</description>
    <files>
        <folder>sql</folder>
        <folder>tmpl</folder>
        <filename>mod_helloworld2.xml</filename>
        <filename module="mod_helloworld2">mod_helloworld2.php</filename>
        <filename>index.html</filename>
        <filename>helper2.php</filename>
        <filename>tmpl/default.php</filename>
        <filename>tmpl/index.html</filename>
    </files>
    <config>
    </config>


    <install>
         <sql>
             <file driver="mysql" charset="utf8">sql/mysql/install.mysql.utf8.sql</file>
         </sql>
    </install>

    <uninstall>
         <sql>
             <file driver="mysql" charset="utf8">sql/mysql/uninstall.mysql.utf8.sql</file>
         </sql>
    </uninstall>

    <update> 
        <schemas>
            <schemapath type="mysql">sql/mysql/updates</schemapath> 
        </schemas> 
    </update>
</extension>

I installed this module and successfully, but it gives me the following warning:

JFolder: :files: Path is not a folder. Path: D:\XamppInstalation\htdocs\joomla\modules\mod_helloworld2\sql\mysql\updates

I checked my Module inside Zip File, sql\mysql\updates folder does exists, but when I checked within the installed module this folder doesn't exist.

This is my zipped module.

Please help me check if there is something wrong with my module.

The updates folder is empty. Empty folders are not created during installation. You don't need to add update schema paths in the initial version of your extension since it's going to be empty. But if you want to include it anyways, create a dummy file like index.html inside the folder.
