503 Internal Server Error (Write) from IBM Watson Visual Recognition Service with Python SDK #762

Closed jerod-estapa closed 3 years ago

jerod-estapa commented 3 years ago

I am trying to create a visual recognition classifier for the Watson Visual Recognition service:

from ibm_watson import VisualRecognitionV3, ApiException
from ibm_cloud_sdk_core.authenticators import IAMAuthenticator

visual_recognition = VisualRecognitionV3(
    version='2018-03-19',
)

try:
    with open('./img/burgers.zip', 'rb') as food, open(
                    './img/hot_dogs.zip', 'rb') as hot_dogs:
        model = visual_recognition.create_classifier(
            'food',
            positive_examples={'burgers': burgers},
            negative_examples=hot_dogs).get_result()
    print(json.dumps(model, indent=2))
except ApiException as ex:
    print(f'Method failed with status code {str(ex.code)}: {ex.message}')

But I keep getting a 503 error back:

I can classify an image with the same credentials, so I'm not sure why classifier creation is not working.

Edit: I have tried with curl as well, and it's the same response, so it's probably not the SDK. Any guidance on the 503 would still be greatly appreciated, though, since it's pretty generic.

@jerodestapa Thanks for opening the issue, looks like an intermittent service issue, can you still re-create it?
