Some questions regarding REST API(Flask) status

[jackie-ni-dev]

Dear Author,
your project is fantastic! I am a student and have encountered several difficulties while studying it. Would it be possible for you to assist me with some questions?
Thank you. Here are my questions:
I am following the instructions from Installing CSLE by ansible in the CSLEv0.8.0 documentation. I only have one Ubuntu 22.04 virtual machine. I successfully followed the instructions, but I encountered a minor error inREST API(Flask) .I open my leader ip in brower ,but it show 502 Bad Gateway. And i use csle ls --all is show;
(base) leader@leader-virtual-machine:~/csle/ansible$ csle ls --all

Hi @jackie-ni-dev,

Thank you for your interest.

Can you try cd csle/management-system/csle-mgmt-webapp/server and then run python server.py to see what error Flask is giving?

[jackie-ni-dev]

okay! Thank you very much!
I tried running server.py,then it show ImportError: cannot import name 'genai' from 'google' (unknown location).Based on this error, I downloaded this module using the following command: pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall google-genai.Howerver,I encountered another error:ERROR:
pip's dependency resolver does not currently take into account all the packages that are installed. This behaviour is the source of the following dependency conflicts.
conda-repo-cli 1.0.75 requires requests_mock, which is not installed.
anaconda-cloud-auth 0.1.4 requires pydantic<2.0, but you have pydantic 2.12.0 which is incompatible.
botocore 1.31.64 requires urllib3<2.1,>=1.25.4; python_version >= "3.10", but you have urllib3 2.5.0 which is incompatible.
streamlit 1.30.0 requires cachetools<6,>=4.0, but you have cachetools 6.2.0 which is incompatible.
streamlit 1.30.0 requires packaging<24,>=16.8, but you have packaging 25.0 which is incompatible.
streamlit 1.30.0 requires protobuf<5,>=3.20, but you have protobuf 6.32.1 which is incompatible.
streamlit 1.30.0 requires rich<14,>=10.14.0, but you have rich 14.1.0 which is incompatible.
streamlit 1.30.0 requires tenacity<9,>=8.1.0, but you have tenacity 9.1.2 which is incompatible.
conda-repo-cli 1.0.75 requires clyent==1.2.1, but you have clyent 1.2.2 which is incompatible.
conda-repo-cli 1.0.75 requires requests==2.31.0, but you have requests 2.32.5 which is incompatible.
But I overlooked these dependency errors.(Is there a problem with this?)
I run server.py again.I have obtained the webpage demonstrated in your video.

But I run csle ls --all and got the same result as before:REST API (Flask) status: [stopped] ip:192.168.110.129.
Does this affect the operation of your project?
Thank you very much for your help, and I would be extremely grateful if you could assist me! Thank you！

[Kim-Hammar]

When you run "csle start flask" it runs python server.py in the background and saved the PID of the process to a file. Then when you run csle ls --all it simply reads that PID to check if the server is running. Now since you started server.py manually the PID file will not be updated. In general if it is working I think you can just ignore the output from csle ls --all.

[jackie-ni-dev]

Thank you for your response. I'll continue learning from your project! Thank you for your outstanding work!

[Kim-Hammar]

The python dependency errors do not matter. It will be fixed in the next release.
