--- Comment #3 from Stephan Bergmann <sbergman at redhat.com> ---
This bug is not a duplicate of bug 128538.  That bug is about opening links
that denote folders, while this bug is about opening links that denote files.

I cannot reproduce this bug with LO 6.2.8.2 on macOS.  In my Desktop folder I
create the Error-Hyperlink.xls and the folder X containing a jpeg file PIC.JPG.
 Clicking the hyperlink in Calc opens the jpeg file in Preview.  This works
even if I make the case-spelling of the actual file name (e.g., Pic.JPG) differ
from the PIC.JPG spelling in the =HYPERLINK(...) formula (as would be expected
for a case-insensitive file system on macOS).  However, if I remove the
Desktop/X/PIC.JPG file, I get the (unfortunately somewhat misleading, for that
scenario) "... is not an absolute URL that can be passed..." error message.

Your comment 0 mentions a Desktop/Tst-Hyperlink sub-folder.  Both your
Error-Hyperlink.xls and your X sub-folder are contained in that
Desktop/Tst-Hyperlink folder?
