Hi community, I’m getting this error from my code as it was working fine couple minutes ago and it suddenly had this happened. I’m the only person in the project. This is the first time it happened ever since I used wandb throughout 2000+ hours usage. Thanks in advance.

args.wandb = AVAILABLE\_WANDB  
if args.wandb:  
wandb.init(  
project=f’AFL-{args.method}-{args.adversarial\_type}-{args.n\_batches}-{args.total\_num\_clients}-{args.num\_clients\_per\_round}-{args.dataset}-{args.num\_clients\_per\_round}-{args.num\_available}-{args.total\_num\_clients}‘,  
name=f"{args.method}{args.comment}",  
config=args,  
dir=’.',  
save\_code=True

```
    )
    wandb.run.log_code(".", include_fn=lambda x: 'src/' in x or 'main.py' in x)

```

I’m getting this error: File “C:\Users\johnn\Desktop\code\Resource Aware\Summarized-repo-main\Active-Client-Selection-for-Communication-efficient-Federated-Learning-main\src\main.py”, line 161, in

I am also seeing all of a sudden this after thousands of wandb runs.

Hi @johnnyxiangyuma and @shiron-drusinsky - we had a partial outage that we have resolved so you should be able to initiate Runs as expected.

Please let us know if you are still seeing the error and apologise for any issue this may have caused.

why was this outage not reported on [https://status.wandb.com/](https://status.wandb.com/)? I encountered the same issue and wasted so much time trying to debug
