Test Configuration

  • Kubernetes clusters tested on: Openshift-AI Cluster

Checklist 🎯

  • Followed coding guidelines
  • Comments added
  • Dependent changes merged
  • Documentation updated
  • Tests added or updated

Additional information

  • RayTaskError clearly states to downgrade the protobuf version
TypeError: Descriptors cannot be created directly.
If this call came from a _pb2.py file, your generated code is out of date and must be regenerated with protoc >= 3.19.0.
If you cannot immediately regenerate your protos, some other possible workarounds are:
 1. Downgrade the protobuf package to 3.20.x or lower.
 2. Set PROTOCOL_BUFFERS_PYTHON_IMPLEMENTATION=python (but this will use pure-Python parsing and will be much slower).
 3. More information: https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/news/2022-05-06#python-updates

LGTM!

## Troubleshooting

- **RayTaskError or TypeError stating "Descriptors cannot be created directly."**
This error indicates compatibility issues with the protobuf library version used in your project. While initializing the Ray cluster, you need to specify `protobuf` version `3.20.1` in the `runtime_env` parameter during Ray initialization. This ensures that the correct version of `protobuf` is used, avoiding the `RayTaskError` issues.

3.20.1 is only relevant for certain versions of ray right? It would be better to specify both the compatible versions together
