this is my cmdline: clearml-task --name hla --requirements requirements.txt --project examples --output-uri http://clearml-fileserver:8081 --queue aws-instances --script keras_tensorboard.py

i added --skip-task-init too

task = Task.init(project_name='examples', task_name='moemwap', output_uri=True, reuse_last_task_id=False)

for comparison: this is when i use --output-uri

its as if the line is not there

no i don't think so, i think rather Task.init is only used for running outside of agent

and if you add --skip-task-init ?
I think what happens is that the clearml-Task, adds a Task.init call without the output_uri that is called before "your" Task.init, and this is what causes it to be ignored. Could that be the case?

but i still think the same should be possible using the Task.init

it didn''t make a difference

don't know.. but i see for instance when using clearml-task i can put any (even nonsensical) values in Task.init

and ... clearml-agent takes a --project and a --name argument that are mandatory , so these are never taken from Task.init

so it seems that it takes output_uri from the clearml commandline but not from the Task.init inside the scripot

(same for environment variable)

well it made a difference (the code for the init() is not added anymore) but it still didn't take my output uri

AgitatedDove14 your trick seems to work (i had to change the url to reflect the fact i run on k8s)

it was to test if reuse_last_task_id made any effect (i have the impression it doesn't)

well it doesn't fail. but whatever i set gets ignored

this is now in my python script:

and also, on the tutorials that do something with task.init, the example always talks about running locally and not in the agent

i set reuse_last_task_id to false to force creation of a new task in all cases

this is the output of the training. it doens't try to upload (note that this is my second try so it already found a model with that name, but on my first try it didn't work either)

and when i try to use --output-uri i can't pass true because obviously i can't pass a boolean only strings

hmm, that sounds right, I think we should fix that so when using --output-uri true the value that is passed is actually True, not the string "true".
Regrading the issue itself:
are you saying --skip-task-init is being ignored ? and it always adds the Task.init call? you can also pass --output-uri https://files.clear.ml (which is the same as True) , does that work?

...I'm not sure I follow, the clearml-task is designed to always be used so that at the end the agent will be running the Task. What am I missing?

but i still think the same should be possible using the Task.init

This is the part the I find confusing:
Task.init(..., output_uri=True) is working for me, what is that setup that caused this line to "fail"?

this is the script shown by clearML ui. so the task.init call looks right

and when i try to use --output-uri i can't pass true because obviously i can't pass a boolean only strings

hello, i'm still not able to save clearml models. They are generated and registered okay, but they are not on the fileserver. i now have Task.init(output_uri=True) and i also have --skip-task-init in clearml commandline so that it doesn't overwrite the task.init call

it seems that whatever i pass to Task.init is ignored

the model has this information ... the /tmp seem local URIs suggesting that it doesn't even try to upload them
