Error while upgrading from 0.67 to 0.68

Hi!
As the headline mentioned while I’m upgrading to 0.68, I’m getting a " Please Wait " and nothing happens.
it’s important to note that it occurs only while I’m deploying on Docker with no write permission to disk.

  1. did something change between these 2 releases? ( did git compare. came up with nothing)
  2. How can I debug it? after deployment, there are no available logs.

Thanks!

Hey @amitg1,

Can you send a screen shot of your terminal while your pip install --upgrade streamlit?
How long are you sitting at the “please wait”?

Let me know and I will see if I can find an answer for you!

Hi!

Here is the stack trace when running streamlit run run.py:

Hey @amitg1,

Sorry, its been a bit busy here and I have only just saw that you sent your error log through. I have passed this on to our team to see if we can find some answers for you.

Also, have you tried this since the newest Streamlit version came out (0.70.0)?

Happy Streamlit-ing!

Hey @amitg1,

Based on the error logs, you have a read only file system at /home/jenkins/.streamlit that our system should normally have write access (~/.streamlit is our home directory). Our team is looking into solutions on our end, but I would like to try and get you un-stuck ASAP.

Can you run the following in your terminal to give write permissions to this directory:

chmod +w /home/jenkins/.streamlit

The problem seems to be stemming from one of the recent pull requests (link) that helps us track metrics.

Just to reassure you:

  • We collect summary statistics to improve Streamlit
  • Streamlit open-source software does not — and never will — see or store any of the data you put into any app that you develop with it. That data belongs to you and only you.
  • The open-source software does, by default, collect summary statistics. You can easily turn off summary statistics when using our open source software by changing your config file to set browser.gatherUsageStats = false.
  • You can find more details on how to turn off this feature here.
  • here is a link to our privacy policy page if you want to know more

Hope this helps,
Happy Streamlit-ing!

Hi,
Thanks for the quick response!
1.I do have gatherUsageState = false inside my project .streamlit/config.toml.

2.I even copied my config.toml to ~/.streamlit/config.toml in case the project config did not override the general one.

still having the same problem:

  1. When executing streamlit config show in the pod the output is not the same config I copied earlier.
    (it’s the initial config from https://docs.streamlit.io/en/stable/streamlit_configuration.html#set-configuration-options)
    BUT if i execute cat ~/.streamlit/config.toml I do see the right config. weird

  2. The next action was to execute it inside the mentioned pod
    streamlit run run.py --browser.gatherUsageStats false/streamlit run run.py --browser.gatherUsageStats=false
    still, same error

  3. My conclusion is that somehow in the update from 0.67 to 0.68 the ability to use a custom config something stopped working.
    AND there was a breaking change that requires writing to disk on versions bigger than 0.67.

My next action is to add “chmod +w /home/jenkins/.streamlit” which i don’t want to do but ill use as last resort.

Thanks

up?
