Installation error - prisma

[Kailegh]

I am trying to run chainlit inside a container build with the following Dockerfile

FROM python:3.11-slim-buster
WORKDIR /app

RUN apt-get update && \
    apt-get install nodejs -y && \
    apt-get clean

COPY requirements.txt /app
#RUN  pip install --upgrade pip
RUN  pip install -r requirements.txt

COPY . /app

RUN prisma generate
ENV HOST=0.0.0.0
ENV LISTEN_PORT 8000
EXPOSE 8000
CMD ["/bin/bash", "launch_scripts/chainlit_app_custom.sh"]

When I try to run it I get the following error:

I thought it was an error in my application and used prisma generate as explained in the error, but it still did not work. So I went back to the basics:

pip install chainlit==0.4.2 --force-reinstall
chainlit hello

And still got the same error:

Any ideas of what may be happening?

Hey the generate command is supposed to be handled by Chainlit. Can I see your chainlit run ... command and your .chainlit/config.toml? Also is there already a chat.db file in your.chainlit folder?

Ok nevermind, tried removing the .chainlit folder and I think it just started working, thanks a lot!!
