I am running four experiments from the same system (a google cloud VM) and while one is running fine: three have frozen (no progress but program still active/has not errored out). Curious if anyone knows how to fix this?

Hi @usman391 ,

Thank you for reaching out with your support request. We will be glad to look into this to determine the cause.  
Can you please provide the following:

- Description of the experiment you are running (single runs from four agents, or parallel processes?)
- Sample code for you how you are initializing/executing runs
- `debug` logs for the runs this error is occurring, they live in the `WANDB_DIR` which defaults to `./wandb` in your project folder.

Please attach the code sample/logs here or send directly to me at [mohammad.bakir@wandb.com](mailto:mohammad.bakir@wandb.com).

Regards,

Mohammad

Thanks for the response Mohammad Bakir. The error actually went away after I rebooted the system and has not occurred again since. If it occurs again, I will let you know.
