Why could this be happening? Please help!

Hi there, are you sure that this error message is from our library? there are some packages listed here that don't seem to be relevant to flask-base. If it is from this library, can you comment on what are the steps you took to actually get these errors?

[rpalri]

I am simply trying to run the app using the command flask run and then getting this error.

[rpalri]

I tried it without using the virtual environment and am still getting the same error.

[abhisuri97]

Hmm. so could you try and run the application using the instructions in the README for this repository? (i.e. the "honcho" command). You'll also need to install the dependencies (ref the README instructions) in a virtual environment & activate that environment before you run the honcho command.

[rpalri]

I'm pretty new at this. Let me try out what you said and then get back.
