AgitatedDove14 - fantastic support! I was indeed missing the output_uri, I evidently commented it out with a "FIXME - why is this here?" comment. So now I see the model on the S3 server and the Web UI properly shows its path:
...I've removed the model from the serving instance to start fresh and the clearml-serving docker containers all come up happy. However, when I clearml-serving model add ... it is using the wrong URL - an https:// instead of an s3:// so it can't upload the preprocess.py file:

If I do model add without the --preprocess option, it completes fine.

Okay that makes sense, if this is the case I'm assuming you have set the files server to point to your S3 bucket is that correct ?
could it be you are missing the credentials for that (it is trying to upload the preprocessing code there, so the clearml-serving container would be able to pull it later)

All this mess was caused by a docker bridge IP subnet clash with our VPN subnet. 😞
Thanks for all the help AgitatedDove14 !

No, it's a real S3 server that we have on-prem.
` aws {
s3 {
region: ""
key: ""
secret: ""
use_credentials_chain: false

        credentials: [
            {
                host: "e3-storage-grid-gateway.aero.org:443"
                key: "****"
                secret: "****"
                multipart: false
                secure: true
            }
        ]
    }
    boto3 {
        pool_connections: 512
        max_multipart_concurrency: 16
    }
} `

When I start the serving containers it can't retrieve the model:

Hi BrightRabbit75
I think you need to pass the credentials for your S3 account to the clearml-serving containers
Basically just add AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID , AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY to your docker compose:

https://github.com/allegroai/clearml-serving/blob/4b52103636bc7430d4a6666ee85fd126fcb49e2e/docker/docker-compose-triton-gpu.yml#L110
https://github.com/allegroai/clearml-serving/blob/4b52103636bc7430d4a6666ee85fd126fcb49e2e/docker/docker-compose-triton-gpu.yml#L83

yep, that's the reason it is failing, how did you train the model itself ?

I'm now stuck on the actual request. I took a guess on the triton config with input/output names/etc. so I think I'm doing something wrong there. I can't seem to figure out what the names should be from the pytorch example - where did INPUT__0 come from?

I've added that to the example.env. Same creds/etc from the clearml.conf and I can see the metrics/artifacts on the S3 server. I can't find any actual model files on the server though. However, I swear it worked once.

Next time online I'll attach to the containers and verify the AWS creds are present. I guess there's a way to request the model from the cli/python env that I can test as well.

Yes - the files_server is set to s3://... and the credentials are in the clearml.conf in the sdk/aws/s3 section. I'm trying to debug my way through the code to see where it fails and see if I can tell what's wrong.

I'm having trouble just verifying the bucket via boto3 directly so something else might be amiss causing this issue.

Ah, that's what I'm missing. Will test tomorrow. I should have started with the example instead of my existing experiment. Thanks AgitatedDove14 !

In clearml.conf:
files_server: " "

clearml-serving --id ${SERVE_TASK_ID} model add --engine triton --preprocess "preprocess.py" --endpoint "deep_satcom_test" --project "DeepSatcom" --published --input-size 4 128 1 --input-name INPUT__0 --input-type float32 --output-size 2 --output-name OUTPUT__0 --output-type float32

it is using the wrong URL - an https:// instead of an s3:// so it can't upload the preprocess.py file

What do you see as the link in the UI for that specific model ?
What is the full model add command ?

Also - I don't think I'm saving the model correctly. It appears I need to converted into TorchScript?

Is this like a local minio?
What do you have under the sdk/aws/s3 section ?

To auto upload the model you have to tell clearml to upload it somewhere, usually by passing output_uri to Task.init or setting the default_output_uri in the clearml.conf

"This is Not a an S3 endpoint... what is the files server you configured for it?

The model url (shown above) looks invalid:
file:///tmp/tmpl_bxlmu2/model/data/model.pth

I was expecting something like s3://...

I can't seem to figure out what the names should be from the pytorch example - where did INPUT__0 come from

This is actually the latyer name in the model:
https://github.com/allegroai/clearml-serving/blob/4b52103636bc7430d4a6666ee85fd126fcb49e2e/examples/pytorch/train_pytorch_mnist.py#L24
Which is just the default name Pytorch gives the layer
https://discuss.pytorch.org/t/how-to-get-layer-names-in-a-network/134238

it appears I need to converted into TorchScript?

Yes, this is a Triton limitation (actually it is for the best, this is the optimized version of your model)

. I can't find any actual model files on the server though.

What do you mean? Do you see the specific models in the web UI? is the link valid ?
