Thanks for this information! Then I know that it must have something to do with the conda installation. I will dig deeper on that and will post an update, if I’m successful - maybe it would be helpful for someone else in the future

Yes, will do! Does it matter for the agent if it runs in docker mode? I think not, right?

these are the last few lines from the console output - if it is helpful:

clearml_agent: ERROR: ERROR: package manager "conda" selected, but 'conda' executable could not be located `

By default, the agent will use the system PATH (env var) to locate conda, or will use which conda to try and locate the conda executable

Thank you very much for your quick reply! Im using mac on my local machine and the agent is running on a linux vm (debian)

Hi BitingKangaroo95 , are you using Windows?

Shouldn't matter, since this is done during the virtualenv installation - either on the machine the agent is running on (no docker), or inside the docker container

I deployed a new instance real quick and installed everything again. Conda gets found via which conda and is also listed when I try it with echo $PATH . The error still persists.

Thank you very much for your quick reply!

Gladly 🙂

Can you verify conda can be located by one of these two options?
