odd, I have had a prefect flow running for months, not I am getting: Unexpected error occured in FlowRunner: ValueError('Could not infer an active Flow context.')
Copy code

works in 13!
so LocalDaskExecutor is not supported anymore?

Hi @Rob Fowler -- this looks worth opening an issue in the Prefect repo on Github, the executor should still be supported.
r
Just for the record, it's a dask issue that comes up with the latest release: https://github.com/dask/dask/issues/7190
thanks to @Jim Crist-Harif

I'll also push a patch upstream, but that may take longer to propagate out. We're releasing Prefect tomorrow anyway, so you can get this fairly quickly
