UnknownApiError: Network error communicating with endpoint #541

Closed sumeetkhatri closed 5 years ago

For the past week, I have been constantly getting the following error on the QVM:

`UnknownApiError Traceback (most recent call last)

Please describe the problem and copy the above message into a GitHub issue at: https://github.com/rigetticomputing/pyquil/issues` I have seen a similar post about this UnknownApiError, but not exactly this one.

Hi @sumeetkhatri, sorry for the late response- this was a recurring issue with our old stack. If you haven't already, please try downloading our Forest SDK here. Please note that we'll be likely updating the package later this week!
