WebDriverManagerException #207

I'm using a WebDriverManager dependency in my pom.xml in a testng maven framework.
Initializing it in Base test Class lke

WebDriverManager.edgeDriver().setup();
driver=new Edge driver();

But I'm getting WebDriverManagerException added with IllegalArgumentException with reason that URI is not absolute.

I checked URL and it is fine. It is just stopping after
WebDriverManager.edgeDriver().setup();

I'm using latest version of selenium-java, selenium-edge-driver and webdrivermanager
