Ok, I have found the issue. 🙌 When I try to serve a model which is saved on azure (generated by Task.init(..., output_uri='azure://...') ) I get the poll failed for model directory 'test_model_pytorch': failed to open text file for read /models/test_model_pytorch/config.pbtxt: No such file or directory error. A model which was saved on the clearML server (generated by Task.init(..., output_uri=True) ) can be served without any problems.
For now I am not sure why this is the case as saving the model on azure works without any problems and I am using the same credentials for model serving provided in the 'example.env' file. I will dig deeper into that.
