Error getting token from client GCP session: Could not automatically determine credentials. Please set GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS #279

Open rsignell opened 2 months ago

rsignell commented 2 months ago

I'm getting this "error" every time I fire up a Coiled cluster. I've got gcsfs in my "pangeo" software environment, but it's just in there to access public data from Google Cloud Storage -- I don't have any credentials to set.

Is there some way to gracefully avoid this issue?

Sorry for the delay here, Rich.

Can you clarify: Is this error blocking some computation you want to do? Or is it just that the error is annoying to see in your logs?

rsignell commented 1 month ago

@dchudz Doesn't affect anything. Just mentioning it because I was teaching a short course and I have to then spend time telling the students that it's nothing to worry about and why it's likely popping up

Hm, yeah, sorry about this. This behavior is triggered by having google-auth installed (which is a dependency of gcsfs).

I think we could at least make the warning a little less scary, but it may be useful to keep some kind of warning for people who do expect credentials to be set.

Okay, I guess we could also set some bogus credential env vars
