Ok, my educated guess is that you installed the [package](https://archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/julia/) from the official repositories, which is well known to have plenty of problems: [Julia - ArchWiki](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Julia#Installation). Evidence: the error message is pointing to  
[MbedTLS.jl/ssl.jl at 0c02e44ed96bf09ce3b9fb649db5914f629c2812 · JuliaLang/MbedTLS.jl · GitHub](https://github.com/JuliaLang/MbedTLS.jl/blob/0c02e44ed96bf09ce3b9fb649db5914f629c2812/src/ssl.jl#L785)  
and the variable `MozillaCACerts_jll.cacert` is apparently pointing to a non-existing file. You should direct your complaint to the maintainers of the Julia package in Arch Linux, who provide malfunctioning packages.

In the meantime I warmly recommend you to use the package [`aur:julia-bin`](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/julia-bin) which simply redistributes the [official binaries](https://julialang.org/downloads/).
