I'm having a bit of a strange issue. I've recently installed Prefect on a VPS, and it seems to work fine except for the work pool "default" (Process). When I deploy instead of serve, I assume that it should be using the "default" worker pool, and not my local machine. But it just fails with:

Worker 'worker1' submitting flow run 'fa2763d7-ff20-4216-b136-120b566caa15'

It works fine when I run it as .serve. Any ideas? The flow is a slightly modified example, to test with my own private repo.

from prefect import flow, task
from typing import List
from prefect_github import GitHubCredentials
from prefect.runner.storage import GitRepository


@task(log_prints=True)
def get_stars(repo: str):
    url = f"<https://api.github.com/repos/{repo}>"

    print(url)


@flow(name="GitHub Stars")
def github_stars(repos: List[str]):
    repos = ["prefect-io/prefect", "PrefectHQ/prefect"]
    for repo in repos:
        get_stars(repo)



if __name__ == "__main__":
    source = GitRepository(
        url="<https://github.com/syv-ai/advokatgpt.git>",
        credentials=GitHubCredentials.load("prefect-github-credentials-block-newer"),
        branch="main",
    )

    flow.from_source(source, entrypoint="prefect-inf.py:github_stars").deploy(
        name="github-stars", work_pool_name="default"
    )

hi @Mads - what type of work pool is your “default” work pool?

Hi @Nate. From what I can see it's "Process".

okay! i would guess its related to cloning the repo or something, are the logs above the only ones you see streamed from the worker process?

Yes 😞 It clone the repo fine when I run serve.

can you try enabling debug logs like

PREFECT_LOGGING_LEVEL=DEBUG prefect worker start -p default

or whatever your command to start your worker is like
