Hi @<1523701205467926528:profile|AgitatedDove14> , here's my code with some more prints:

from clearml import Task

print("Before Task.init")

task = Task.init(project_name="ClearML Testing", task_name="FMNIST")
print("Before task.set_repo")
task.set_repo(
    repo="git@ssh.dev.azure.com:v3/mclarenracing/Application%20Engineering/ml-queue-test"
)
print("Before task.set_packages")
task.set_packages("requirements.txt")

print("After task")

print("Before import")

@<1523701205467926528:profile|AgitatedDove14> we've now configured the server to have it's own user account to run the agent so it is no longer running as root, but no luck 😞

My money is on the Redis container although comparing the logs between Kube & Docker Desktop, nothing looks out of the ordinary...

Yes the agent is running in venv mode afaik. As for why it’s running as root - I’ll ask our engineer …

I've added that flag, removed all PL loggers & callbacks and all references to Hydra, but no luck 😞

Hi all, we're still suffering this issue where jobs are seemingly randomly aborted. The only clue is this in the ClearML logs:

2024-12-13 06:16:30  Process terminated by user

The only pattern we can see is that it typically happens around 6-7am.

Any suggestions on how to debug this would be greatly appreciated!

I think I've found a clue after running with debug:

Which auto_connect_* arg do I use and what value to I set it to? At the end of my training run I'm making .png plots of everything in my test set, and I don't want these to be logged as artifacts.

It's not covered here either: None

Thanks for the response @<1523701205467926528:profile|AgitatedDove14> ! The code is a small FMNIST test training job written in PyTorch Lightning. On my local job (laptop GPU, Windows) it completes in ~ 5min. On the server (Linux, H100s) it just hangs at Starting Task Execution: . Neither of these are in Docker.

I would expect to see the standard PL progress bars outputted to the console, but since nothing is outputted, so I'm not sure how to go about debugging this. I've attached the ...

I managed to set up my (Windows) laptop as a worker and reproduce the issue. Would that suggest an issue with ClearML server?

Our server is deployed on a kube cluster. I'm not too clear on how Helm charts etc. work, but if there are any obvious things we should check, let me know and I can ask our DevOps engineer

Looking at the logs in the Kube pods now for anything that looks unusual...

My understanding is that on remote execution Task.init is supposed to be a no-op right?

I essentially have the same issue as this SO question: How to pass command-line arguments to Hydra when running a remote task with clearml-task CLI? - Stack Overflow

Will try non-root and get back to you. I’m also trying to reproduce on a different machine too

It seems like the worker lost network connectivity, and then aborted the jobs 😞

Ok thanks for confirming!

Also is there a way to disable this by default?

The reason I ask is that I want to send many jobs to a queue via the CLI. so I don't really want to be messing around with Task.init() .

I've even tried renaming my files to *pth and *.data to stop this behaviour

It’s a Dell XE9680 rack server with 8xH100s which is located in our office, running AlmaOS. We have successfully run training jobs on it inside Docker (without ClearML) which work fine (will check with my team if we’ve got something to train without Docker). I’ve also tried different Python versions; 3.9 (Alma default) and 3.11 which you can see in the log above. It’s a really bizarre issue and outside of print statements I’m not really sure where to look.

You mentioned sync argparse...

Hi @<1523701087100473344:profile|SuccessfulKoala55> thanks for the reply! The output above is from grep -i network /var/log/syslog on the machine running the agent. That's good to hear that clearml is pretty resilient to network outages 🙂 . Do you have any suggestions on how we can start tracking down the cause of this?

This is the only clue that was logged to the console in clearml server: 2024-11-21 06:57:13 Process terminated by user . The first errors on the agent logs appea...

Hmm no change after adding that unfortunately (confirmed that the change had been added by clearml-agent config ) 😞

Ah yes you were right, it does still print on remote. Here you go:

Hi @<1523701205467926528:profile|AgitatedDove14> , I reordered the imports:

from clearml import Task

print("Before task")

task = Task.init(project_name="ClearML Testing", task_name="FMNIST")
task.set_repo(
    repo="git@ssh.dev.azure.com:v3/mclarenracing/Application%20Engineering/ml-queue-test"
)
task.set_packages("requirements.txt")

print("After task")

print("Before import")

For reference, the clearml agent is running in its own user profile in Ubuntu 24.04 (so that it doesn't run as root as per previous discussions)

Here's what the agent was logging:

Thanks John, but is there a way to do this via the CLI?

Or is Task.init() the only way?

I just ran with this in my local task, and all the env vars were printed to console, but in ClearML they are not in the console log. Presumably that's because it's printed before ClearML is logging?

He confirmed that it’s not inside a container. Trying to figure out why it’s running as root but would it make a difference if it was? Is it better to run the agent from a user profile?

Edit: it might be a container! Just checking now...

I was hoping something like output_uri=False would work, but looking at the source code, I don't think that would work @<1523701070390366208:profile|CostlyOstrich36>
