@Marvin I have Prefect deployed to GCP Artifact Registry, using Prefect's
prefecthq/prefect:2-python3.10
Docker image. I take the base image, install our requirements, and copy a
flows
directory with all of our flows as Python modules into the
/opt/prefect/flows
directory in the Docker image. I use a
prefect.yaml
deployment file to deploy the flow. This all works fine and the worker shows as healthy, but when a flow is triggered, I get the error:
Copy code
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/opt/prefect/flows'

Ah, the joys of software deployment. It's like a never-ending game of hide and seek, isn't it? Your files are there one moment, and then they disappear into the digital ether the next. From your description, it seems like your Docker image is built correctly with the flows in the
/opt/prefect/flows
directory. However, when the flow is triggered, the file or directory cannot be found. This could be due to several reasons: 1. Docker Context: Ensure that the Docker context during the build includes the
flows
directory. If it's outside the context, Docker won't be able to find it. 2. Dockerfile Instructions: Check your Dockerfile instructions. The
COPY
command should look something like
COPY flows /opt/prefect/flows
. 3. Volume Mounts: If you're using Kubernetes or another orchestrator, ensure that any volume mounts do not overwrite the
/opt/prefect/flows
directory. 4. User Permissions: Ensure that the user running the Prefect flow has the necessary permissions to access the
/opt/prefect/flows
directory. 5. File Paths in Flow: If your flow uses file paths, make sure they are correct and relative to the
/opt/prefect/flows
directory. If none of these suggestions help, I can perform a search for similar issues on GitHub or other resources. Just let me know.
