I recently installed Weights and Biases (wandb) for recording the metrics of my machine learning projects. Everything worked fine when connected to wandb cloud instance or when I used a local docker image. Now, when I tried to access my local wandb instance from over the network, I started to get API error messages. However, I also noticed that wandb was trying to access my server using port 80, instead of 8080. I installed wandb client on a new cloud server and tried to access my server from there. Still, same error message shown below.

This error happens when I use the command: wandb login host=https://api.wandb.ai I have tried to delete the .netrc file where the api settings are stored and re-installed wandb. Still same error. Using wandb version 0.10.2 on Ubuntu 18.04; Also, tried downgrading to version 0.8.36, no change. If I try the command: wandb login --relogin, I get the same error.

Is there some way to reset wandb so it forgets all these settings, or to resolve this issue directly?

Many thanks

Best Regards,

Adeel

I'm an engineer at Weights & Biases-- would love to help get this issue resolved.

If you want to reset your settings, you can do the following:

1. Delete the appropriate entry from your .netrc file as you have already done.
2. Delete the wandb/settings file from where you are launching your scripts.

You can then visit this link: https://wandb.ai/authorize and copy your API key.

Then, run the following:

wandb login <API_KEY>

Once you've done this, you should be good to go. Please let me know if you still run into issues after running the steps above.
