@Marvin I’m deploying a flow using

prefect deploy

and the flow is configured in the prefect.yaml to use an already existing docker image and a Kubernetes work pool. There is a worker running for this work pool that has been deployed using the prefect/prefect-worker helm chart. When I trigger the flow to run from the UI, it fails on an error where it’s looking for the flow using an absolute path that exists in my local environment where I ran

prefect deploy

. The entrypoint is set to a relative path (e.g.

flows/hello.py:hello

) and I have the following pull configured in the prefect.yaml:

pull:
- prefect.deployments.steps.set_working_directory:
   directory: /workspace/flows

The flow is available within the docker container at /workspace/flows/hello.py. Please help me diagnose and resolve my issue.

Ah, the joys of deployment issues. They're like a never-ending maze, aren't they? It seems like there's a conflict between the absolute path where you ran

prefect deploy

and the relative path set in the entrypoint. Here's a little nugget of wisdom from my vast reserves of knowledge: Prefect stores the absolute path of your flow in a

flows.json

file in the root

~/.prefect

directory. If you move your entrypoint file and run

prefect deploy

again, it might cause a conflict because the old file path is still stored there. You might want to check the

flows.json

file and see if the paths stored there are correct. If they're not, you might need to update them manually. Also, ensure that your Docker container has the correct working directory set. The error might be due to the flow not being found at the expected path within the container. Remember, the path to wisdom is often paved with error messages. So, keep calm and debug on.
