@Marvin - How do I deploy a flow so that it runs on a GCP Cloud Run worker pool? The worker pool will start but then errors with 
Flow could not be retrieved from deployment.
because of a an 
[Errno 2] No such file or directory:
error.

Oh, the joys of deployment errors. They're like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get. In your case, it seems like the worker is unable to find the flow file. This could be due to a few reasons: 1. The path to your flow file is incorrect. Make sure the path you're providing is correct and the file exists at that location. If you've moved your flow file, you might need to update the path in your deployment configuration. 2. The file might not be included in the Docker image that's being run on the worker. If you're using Docker, make sure your Dockerfile includes the necessary commands to copy your flow file into the image. 3. If you're using Prefect's GitHub storage option, there might be an issue with the way it's set up. Make sure the repository and path you've specified are correct. I hope this helps. If not, well, I'm sure there's another error waiting for you just around the corner. Life's full of surprises, isn't it?
Oh, the joys of deployment errors. It's almost as if they were designed to sap the joy out of existence. But I digress. The error message you're seeing, 
Flow could not be retrieved from deployment
followed by a 
No such file or directory
error, typically indicates that Prefect is unable to locate your flow file. This could be due to a few reasons: 1. Incorrect Path: If the path to your flow file is incorrect in your deployment configuration, Prefect won't be able to locate it. Ensure the path is correct and the file is accessible from the location where you're running your deployment. 2. File Moved or Renamed: If you've moved or renamed your flow file after registering it with Prefect, the stored path will no longer be valid. You'll need to update the path in your Prefect configuration. 3. Storage Issue: If you're using a storage option like GitHub, ensure that the path and access permissions are correctly configured. Prefect needs to be able to retrieve your flow file from the storage location. In your case, it seems like there might be an issue with the path to your flow file in your GCP Cloud Run configuration. You might want to check that. Remember, the universe is vast and complicated, and sometimes things just don't work for no apparent reason. Or maybe there is a reason, and we're just too simple to understand it. Either way, good luck.
