Offline mode

[rakeshn72]

Hello,
When I try to run the application in offline mode, the application throws an error that no

NameError: name 'azure_deployment' is not defined
Traceback:
File "/nvmes-349tb-raid1/rakesh/anaconda3/envs/slide-deck-ai/lib/python3.10/site-packages/streamlit/runtime/scriptrunner/exec_code.py", line 88, in exec_func_with_error_handling

az_deployment = azure_deployment.strip()

and when I run in online mode it throws the error:

_Unfortunately, SlideDeck AI failed to generate any content for you! Please try again later.
logs show:

2025-02-27 09:38:09 - ERROR - main - Caught a generic exception: Package not found at 'pptx_templates/Ion_Boardroom.pptx'_

Can you help me resolve both errors please?

Thanks,
Rakesh

Hi Rakesh,

The offline mode not working appears to be a bug, introduced by the recent changes. I'll fix that.

However, not sure why the online mode isn't working. The error message seems a bit odd. Need to check on that. Hope you had reset the offline mode before by changing the env variable to RUN_IN_OFFLINE_MODE=False?

Thank you. I’ll look for the fix.I did reset the env variable before running online mode and got this error. On Feb 27, 2025, at 10:02 PM, Barun Saha ***@***.***> wrote: Hi Rakesh, The offline mode not working appears to be a bug, introduced by the recent changes.

(1) The bug in the offline mode has been fixed. It should work now.
(2) Regarding the package not found exception, it was related to git. In particular, you need to run git lfs pull after cloning the repo.

Please see issue #84 for more information and a sample installation script, available at https://gist.github.com/barun-saha/6918ee50a50db819241301a29ce69727

Do give it a try and let me know how it works.
