Splitter/consolidator worker encountered exception while consuming source data (DataClassification AutoML)

[rzechu]

System Information (please complete the following information):

• OS & Version: Windows 10
• ML.NET Version: ML.NET 2.0.0
• .NET Version: .NET4.8 and .NET 6 same error
  VisualStudio 2022 + ML.NET ModelBuilder 2022 (17.14.4.2312404)

Describe the bug
I have seen few issues regarding similliar error but all of them regards ImageClassification. Mine regards DataClassification

DataClassification using SQL Server View

To Reproduce

1. DataClassification
2. Lot of columns (date, decimals, ints) 2 varchar and 1 label is fine
3. Lot of columns (date, decimals, ints) 2 varchar and 1 label and 1 more problematic varchar columns (StringCol3) instant - error
4. If i replace this problematic varchar column with constants for all rows something like 'abc' as [StringCol3] training is fine

Can't attach those columns due to sensitive data.
But I anoymyzed and trimmed enought data to reproduce (attached SQL scripts to create table and insert records)
This should be enough to reproduce this error.

BONUS if you make a View, replace 1 column with empty/null and use this View for DataClassification

CREATE OR ALTER VIEW XYZ 
AS
SELECT
 .....
, RIGHT(StringCol3,0) AS StringCol3
.....
FROM AIBug

You will get another error

Schema mismatch for input column 'StringCol3_CharExtractor': expected Expected known-size vector of Single, got Vector<Single>
Parameter name: inputSchema

Expected behavior
No error? Or human readable information what is wrong and how to fix it.
