Hi there, I am facing this issue while using wandb.init().

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/wandb/original/1X/4de690d919b9d13b072bd6968c7c5a6d8c4061af.png)

I tried running following instructions:

```auto
wandb.init(settings=wandb.Settings(start_method='fork'))
or
wandb.init(settings=wandb.Settings(start_method='thread'))

```

is not working.

Help would be appreciated, thanks!

Hi @prj ,

We recently set our client ([v 0.13.0](https://github.com/wandb/wandb/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#0130-august-4-2022)) to use [wandb service](https://docs.wandb.ai/guides/track/advanced/distributed-training#wandb-service) by default for distributed training. The service addresses the [Common Issues](https://community.wandb.ai/guides/track/advanced/distributed-training#common-issues) users run into. Please update your cli or follow instructions in docs in how to use. Let us know if this resolves your issues.

Hi @prj , Following up on this post. Do you still require support assistance on multiprocessing?
