What’s the result of 
prefect version
?

Andy Dienes

05/12/2023, 3:27 PM
2.10.4
in this case the flow is just a test 
assert False
flow that will guarantee fail

Thank you. What’s the result of running 
prefect version
from the CLI? Should be like 10 lines of output.

Thank you! What kind of worker are you using?

Andy Dienes

05/12/2023, 3:53 PM
everything is taken from here: https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect-helm/tree/main/charts
kube worker
not sure if that's sufficient; lmk if there's any other detail I can give

Can you get us the state transitions for the run? 
# usage: python <file>.py <FLOW_RUN_ID>
from prefect import get_client

async def main(flow_run_id):
    async with get_client() as client:
        states = await client.read_flow_run_states(flow_run_id)
        for state in states:
            print(state.timestamp, state.type.name, state.name)


import asyncio
import sys

asyncio.run(main(sys.argv[1]))
Additionally, • Is it a subflow run? • Was the run trigged by 
run_deployment
or a schedule?

it is not a subflow run. I just have

        f"Tags: {flow_run.tags}\n\n"
        f"Approximate start time = {flow_run.expected_start_time}\n"

the retries occur whether it is scheduled (I have these deployed with a cron schedule) or a quick run from the ui

Thanks and this is running via a Kubernetes worker defined by our Helm chart?
Can you share more worker logs? Is it submitting the flow run once or are multiple jobs and pods created for the run?
a

Andy Dienes

05/12/2023, 8:13 PM
yes, kubernetes worker using the chart here https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect-helm/commits/main/charts/prefect-worker. I think the version from 
04.10
I can get more logs, give me a few min 🙂 . I believe it is only one job/pod that is crashing / restarting many times
z

Zanie

05/12/2023, 8:21 PM
Ah why is the pod restarting?
a

Andy Dienes

05/12/2023, 8:23 PM
no idea, I was hoping someone here would know

Zanie

05/12/2023, 8:24 PM
Can you get Kubernetes events information for the job / pod?

jawnsy

05/12/2023, 8:38 PM
Can you share the output of the following command in a DM with Zanie and I? 
kubectl describe pod --selec
tor=<http://app.kubernetes.io/component=worker|app.kubernetes.io/component=worker>
