I am using wandb version 0.13.5 on python 3.6.9 (Linux kernel version: 4.14.281-212.502.amzn2.x86\_64). I have a problem running `wandb.init()` with the following error. > Traceback (most recent call last): > File “/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/wandb\_init.py”, line 1075, in init > wi.setup(kwargs) > File “/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/wandb\_init.py”, line 165, in setup > self.\_wl = wandb\_setup.setup() > File “/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/wandb\_setup.py”, line 312, in setup > ret = \_setup(settings=settings) > File “/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/wandb\_setup.py”, line 307, in \_setup > wl = \_WandbSetup(settings=settings) > File “/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/wandb\_setup.py”, line 293, in **init** > \_WandbSetup.\_instance = \_WandbSetup\_\_WandbSetup(settings=settings, pid=pid) > File “/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/wandb\_setup.py”, line 106, in **init** > self.\_setup() > File “/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/wandb\_setup.py”, line 234, in \_setup > self.\_setup\_manager() > File “/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/wandb\_setup.py”, line 266, in \_setup\_manager > \_use\_grpc=use\_grpc, settings=self.\_settings > File “/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/wandb\_manager.py”, line 108, in **init** > self.\_service.start() > File “/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/service/service.py”, line 112, in start > self.\_launch\_server() > File “/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/service/service.py”, line 108, in \_launch\_server > assert ports\_found > AssertionError > wandb: ERROR Abnormal program exit > proc exited with 1 > * * * > > AssertionError Traceback (most recent call last) > /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/wandb\_init.py in init(job\_type, dir, config, project, entity, reinit, tags, group, name, notes, magic, config\_exclude\_keys, config\_include\_keys, anonymous, mode, allow\_val\_change, resume, force, tensorboard, sync\_tensorboard, monitor\_gym, save\_code, id, settings) > 1074 wi = \_WandbInit() > → 1075 wi.setup(kwargs) > 1076 except\_exit = wi.settings.\_except\_exit > > /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/wandb\_init.py in setup(self, kwargs) > 164 > → 165 self.\_wl = wandb\_setup.setup() > 166 # Make sure we have a logger setup (might be an early logger) > > /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/wandb\_setup.py in setup(settings) > 311 def setup(settings=None) → Optional[“\_WandbSetup”]: > → 312 ret = \_setup(settings=settings) > 313 return ret > > /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/wandb\_setup.py in \_setup(settings, \_reset) > 306 return > → 307 wl = \_WandbSetup(settings=settings) > 308 return wl > > /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/wandb\_setup.py in **init** (self, settings) > 292 return > → 293 \_WandbSetup.\_instance = \_WandbSetup\_\_WandbSetup(settings=settings, pid=pid) > 294 > > /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/wandb\_setup.py in **init** (self, pid, settings, environ) > 105 self.\_check() > → 106 self.\_setup() > 107 > > /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/wandb\_setup.py in \_setup(self) > 233 def \_setup(self): > → 234 self.\_setup\_manager() > 235 > > /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/wandb\_setup.py in \_setup\_manager(self) > 265 self.\_manager = wandb\_manager.\_Manager( > → 266 \_use\_grpc=use\_grpc, settings=self.\_settings > 267 ) > > /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/wandb\_manager.py in **init** (self, settings, \_use\_grpc) > 107 if not token: > → 108 self.\_service.start() > 109 host = “localhost” > > /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/service/service.py in start(self) > 111 def start(self) → None: > → 112 self.\_launch\_server() > 113 > > /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/service/service.py in \_launch\_server(self) > 107 ports\_found = self.\_wait\_for\_ports(fname, proc=internal\_proc) > → 108 assert ports\_found > 109 self.\_internal\_proc = internal\_proc > > AssertionError: > > The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception: > > Exception Traceback (most recent call last) > in > 1 import wandb > ----\> 2 wandb.init() > > /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/wandb/sdk/wandb\_init.py in init(job\_type, dir, config, project, entity, reinit, tags, group, name, notes, magic, config\_exclude\_keys, config\_include\_keys, anonymous, mode, allow\_val\_change, resume, force, tensorboard, sync\_tensorboard, monitor\_gym, save\_code, id, settings) > 1114 if except\_exit: > 1115 os.\_exit(-1) > → 1116 raise Exception(“problem”) from error\_seen > 1117 return run > > Exception: problem I tried downgrading the wandb version to 0.9.7 but the problem still the same.

Hi Raveerat, Thanks for writing in and sorry that you are experiencing this! Could you try running `wandb login --relogin` and introducing you API key? Also, is this happening in colab and Jupiter notebook too? Best, Luis ---
