cannot retrieve result collection from local fractal instance

[pavankum]

I get this error when I try to retrieve a dataset from a local fractal client, it works fine with QCA. I'm using version 0.2.3.

Traceback (most recent call last):

@pavankum I think this is due to the type check we do in qcsubmit here. The error you see is due to the use ofqcfractal.interface rather than qcportal. Can you try and make the client using qcportal this should fix the issue.

Perfect! Thank you @jthorton, it works :). Closing the issue.
