Thanks for reporting, @sauravtii.

Unfortunately, I'm not able to reproduce the issue:
```python
In [1]: from datasets import load_dataset

In [2]: ds = load_dataset("josianem/imdb")

In [2]: ds
Out[2]: 
DatasetDict({
    train: Dataset({
        features: ['text', 'label'],
        num_rows: 25799
    })
    test: Dataset({
        features: ['text', 'label'],
        num_rows: 25000
    })
    unsupervised: Dataset({
        features: ['text', 'label'],
        num_rows: 50000
    })
})
```

Could you please retry to load the dataset? Maybe there was a temporary connection issue to Dropbox. Thanks @albertvillanova. I am facing another issue now

Could you please try the link in your browser and see if it works? https://www.dropbox.com/s/zts98j4vkqtsns6/aclImdb_v2.tar?dl=1
- If it does not work, you should contact the author of the dataset in their Community tab (https://huggingface.co/datasets/josianem/imdb/discussions) and inform them, so that they can host their data elsewhere, for example on the Hugging Face Hub itself

If the link works, you should try to load the dataset but forcing the re-download of the data files (so that the cache is refreshed with the actual data file), by passing `download_mode="force_redownload"`:
```python
dataset = load_dataset("josianem/imdb", download_mode="force_redownload")
``` After pasting the link in the browser, it did start the download so it seems that the link is working. But even after including the `download_mode` in my code I am facing the same issue:

Error:

My code:
```
from datasets import load_dataset, load_metric

dataset = load_dataset("josianem/imdb", download_mode="force_redownload")
``` I have tried again to reproduce your issue without success: the dataset loads perfectly, both in my local machine and in a Colab notebook.
- See: https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1dky3T0XGFuldggy22NNQQN-UqOFqvnuY?usp=sharing

I think the cause maight be that you are using a very old version of `datasets`. Please, could you update it and retry?
```
pip install -U datasets
``` That worked!! Thanks @albertvillanova : )

The code I used:
```
from datasets import load_dataset, load_metric

dataset = load_dataset("josianem/imdb", download_mode="force_redownload")

```

But when I remove `download_mode="force_redownload"` I get the same error. Any guess on that? That is because the cache got the "empty" download file the first time you tried and got the connection error.

Then, once you no longer get the connection error, you need to refresh the cache by passing `download_mode="force_redownload"`.
### Describe the bug

I want to use this (https://huggingface.co/datasets/josianem/imdb) dataset therefore I am trying to load it using the following code:

```
dataset = load_dataset("josianem/imdb")
```
The dataset is not getting loaded and gives the error message as the following:

```
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "sample.py", line 3, in <module>

```

### Steps to reproduce the bug

You can reproduce the error by using the following code:

```
from datasets import load_dataset, load_metric

dataset = load_dataset("josianem/imdb")
```

### Expected behavior

The dataset should get loaded (I am using this dataset for the first time so not much aware of the exact behavior).

- Platform: Linux-5.4.0-58-generic-x86_64-with-glibc2.29
