localhost didn’t send any data/404 not found after starting agent service for the first time

[jaosy]

Hi, I'm quite new to this and have watched the repo walkthrough vid + followed the steps in the readme to run the agent service and streamlit app with docker compose watch as well as running from python itself. The agent service did not seem to be working for me because I get the following page (pic attached). It is running on port 80 and I didn't change anything after cloning the repo besides creating an .env file - in my .env file I copied the .env.example one, added my openAi key and uncommented the AGENT_URL=http://localhost:80 at the bottom of the file. Could I have missed an important step? the streamlit app starts at 8501 but because the agent service isn't running it shows "Error connecting to agent service: Error getting service info: [Errno 111] Connection refused".
Thanks!

Most likely this is the problem. If you remove that line or comment it out again I'd guess it will work. Let me know if you're still having trouble.

Ahh thank you for getting back to me. Unfortunately it didn't work, I stopped my containers, commented it out and ran docker compose build then docker compose watch

Can you post the full logs from both containers?

Have you tried using a different port? Setting your .env like:

Web server configuration

HOST=localhost
PORT=8085

Agent URL: used in Streamlit app - if not set, defaults to http://{HOST}:{PORT}

AGENT_URL=http://localhost:8085

Thanks again for reporting this and explaining. I just changed the default to use 0.0.0.0:8080 which will hopefully be more compatible out of the box and resolve this error.

@jaosy if you try a fresh pull on latest main and still see the issue let me know. Sorry again for the confusion.
