I'll try to create a more classic image.

That is always better, though I remember we have some flag to allow that, you can try with:
CLEARML_AGENT_SKIP_PIP_VENV_INSTALL=1 clearml-agent ...

Sorry for the late reply. It is indeed a venv, I though it would not be an issue since the PYTHONPATH and the PATH are both set to prioritize the venv. I'll try to create a more classic image.

Hi ShinyRabbit94

system_site_packages: true

This is set automatically when running in "docker mode" no need to worry 🙂
What is exactly the error you are getting ?
Could it be the container itself has the python packages installed in a venv not as "system packages" ?

even thought when starting the worker I see this :
agent.python_binary = /opt/venv/bin/python3

(in the logs)

and agent.python_binary is empty.

I noticed logs start as follows :
/usr/bin/python3.9 /usr/bin/python3.9: No module named pip /usr/local/bin/python3.8

yes, it's set to true in the logs as well

Do you see the system_site_packages: true in the configuration printed in the log (when the agent runs in the docker image)?

Well, the config is once thing, but if it can't find the python executable, it will use the same python version it's running from

If it helps, I tried changing the python version to 3.9 (which is also installed in my image). The change is reflected in the agent's config (the lines that appear when starting the worker) but it's still using 3.8 when executing the script.

Python 3.8.12

/root/.clearml/venvs-builds/3.8/bin/python -u /root/.clearml/venvs-builds/3.8/code/train.pyThis is the venv installed by the server (hopefully with system_site_packages: true as you specified in the configuration file).
Can you exec into the image and do python -V ?

The logs continue like this :

I tried to fix the python binary in the config as well :
agent.python_binary = /opt/venv/bin/python3where :
/opt/venv/bin/python3is the output of which python ran inside a docker container using my image.
In the clearml-agent logs I see this :
/root/.clearml/venvs-builds/3.8/bin/python -u /root/.clearml/venvs-builds/3.8/code/train.pySo I don't know if it's using the same python version or not.

Hi ShinyRabbit94 , can you verify the python version running in the agent (where requirements are not found) is the same as the one where you installed your requirements in the docker image?
