Unable to run Flowise and Chroma on Docker[BUG]

[Ramanpreet56]

Describe the bug Hi I just followed the guide mentioned to run flowise and chroma on docker. Modified my docker-compose.yml for chroma as requested but still encountering this error

Error: Chroma getOrCreateCollection error: Error: TypeError: fetch failed

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

I updated docker compose of Chroma to include the flowise env file and flowise reference and then ran the build up command.

This is my flow

Expected behavior I would expect an answer or donot know

Screenshots My Docker instance

Flow If applicable, add exported flow in order to help replicating the problem.

Setup

• Installation [e.g. docker`]
• Flowise Version [latest]
• OS: [Ubuntu WSL]
• Browser [e.g. chrome, edge]

Additional context Add any other context about the problem here.

Hi, I was running into same issues and tried many methods. The main issue is that chroma container and flowise container are not on the same network. Here is a step by step detailed guide how to make chroma run in flowise:

1. clone chroma repository: git clone https://github.com/chroma-core/chroma.git
2. clone flowise repository: git clone https://github.com/FlowiseAI/Flowise.git
3. go to docker-compose.yml file in chroma (chroma/docker-compose.yml)
4. Replace everything in docker-compose.yml file with this:

version: "3.9"

networks: net: driver: bridge

services: server: image: server build: context: . dockerfile: Dockerfile volumes:

Be aware that indexed data are located in "/chroma/chroma/"

  # Default configuration for persist_directory in chromadb/config.py
  # Read more about deployments: https://docs.trychroma.com/deployment
  - chroma-data:/chroma/chroma
command: uvicorn chromadb.app:app --reload --workers 1 --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 --log-config chromadb/log_config.yml --timeout-keep-alive 30
environment:
  - IS_PERSISTENT=TRUE
  - CHROMA_SERVER_AUTH_PROVIDER=${CHROMA_SERVER_AUTH_PROVIDER}
  - CHROMA_SERVER_AUTH_CREDENTIALS_FILE=${CHROMA_SERVER_AUTH_CREDENTIALS_FILE}
  - CHROMA_SERVER_AUTH_CREDENTIALS=${CHROMA_SERVER_AUTH_CREDENTIALS}
  - CHROMA_SERVER_AUTH_CREDENTIALS_PROVIDER=${CHROMA_SERVER_AUTH_CREDENTIALS_PROVIDER}
  - PERSIST_DIRECTORY=${PERSIST_DIRECTORY:-/chroma/chroma}
  - CHROMA_OTEL_EXPORTER_ENDPOINT=${CHROMA_OTEL_EXPORTER_ENDPOINT}
  - CHROMA_OTEL_EXPORTER_HEADERS=${CHROMA_OTEL_EXPORTER_HEADERS}
  - CHROMA_OTEL_SERVICE_NAME=${CHROMA_OTEL_SERVICE_NAME}
  - CHROMA_OTEL_GRANULARITY=${CHROMA_OTEL_GRANULARITY}
  - CHROMA_SERVER_NOFILE=${CHROMA_SERVER_NOFILE}
ports:
  - 8000:8000
networks:
  - net

flowise: platform: linux/x86_64 image: flowiseai/flowise restart: always env_file:

• ../Flowise/docker/.env ports:
• "${FLOWISE_PORT:-3000}:3000" volumes:
• ~/.flowise:/root/.flowise command: /bin/sh -c "sleep 3; flowise start" networks:
• net

volumes: chroma-data: driver: local

5. NOTE the env_file path. Specify where is the flowise docker env file located
6. go to chroma directory: cd chroma
7. compose the new updated docker file: docker-compose up -d
8. go to flowise: http://localhost:3000/
9. For the chroma block it is very important you specify correct URL. How to know chroma correct url? 9.1 check what is chroma docker container id. Type: docker containe ls. 9.2 Then type: docker inspect -f '{{json .NetworkSettings.Networks}}' CHROMA-CONTAINER-ID 9.3 Look for "IPAddress:""HERE_IS_THE_CHROMA_URL" 9.4 In flowise, chroma url would be: http://HERE_IS_THE_CHROMA_URL:DOCKER_CONTAINER_PORT
10. Data upserting and chatting then should work:
