[Bug]: empty workflows list, no indexing is done

[vv111y]

Describe the bug

Using in google colab. I used several different settings.yaml files to try to get it to work, including initial stock with .env file. One time starting in a new folder from scratch it worked partly (errored out before all workflow tasks done), but then after problem persists. I can see no pattern for the cause. please see indexing-engine.log

Steps to reproduce

1. use google colab to run.
2. pip install graphrag.
   note, error:

ERROR: pip's dependency resolver does not currently take into account all the packages that are installed. This behaviour is the source of the following dependency conflicts.
cudf-cu12 24.4.1 requires pandas<2.2.2dev0,>=2.0, but you have pandas 2.2.2 which is incompatible.
cudf-cu12 24.4.1 requires pyarrow<15.0.0a0,>=14.0.1, but you have pyarrow 15.0.0 which is incompatible.
google-colab 1.0.0 requires pandas==2.0.3, but you have pandas 2.2.2 which is incompatible.

3. run indexing using several different settings.yaml, with combinations of using .env or directly entering config in settings file. Including stock settings.yaml
4. empty artifacts folder, no workflow tasks done

Expected Behavior

workflow list should be fully populated and all tasks run correctly. At best have only had a few partial runs, now nothing is done

I removed the cache, double checked .env, and tried the following minimal settings.yaml, and still same error.

Are you trying to run indexing using the command line interface? i.e. python -m graphrag.indexing ...?

I added a change last week that should address your problem. A new command line flag --overlay-defaults will be available that inherits default values (i.e. the workflow steps that are missing from your yaml) in addition to the custom values that your config has declared.

You can either build the python package from source (run poetry build from the root directory of this repo and re-install the wheel) or wait until the next release to start using this new feature.

[vv111y]

right, I should have specified that.

python -m graphrag.index --config <some-settings.yaml> --root .

To be clear I tried multiple settings.yaml files including ones that spedified execution of all work units. All resulted in no workflow steps. I'm installing via main branch and can use --overlay-defaults.

pip install git+https://github.com/microsoft/graphrag@main 

But settings are being ignored still. --overlay-defaults seems to act as a bandaid for some settings. For example, when I add

embed_graph:
  enabled: true # if true, will generate node2vec embeddings for nodes
  num_walks: 10
  walk_length: 40
  window_size: 2
  iterations: 3
  random_seed: 597832

umap:
  enabled: true # if true, will generate UMAP embeddings for nodes

snapshots:
  graphml: true
  raw_entities: true
  top_level_nodes: true

embed_graph, graphml, raw_entities, umap, and top_level_nodes are not being generated.

additionally, when I try a local search there seems to be missing lancedb dataset, see first line below. The last line I wonder if that is an issue with trying to run in colab and maybe a separate issue.

@jgbradley1 the issue is still not fixed, only partially, several artifacts are still not produced - the settings file is being, at least partly, ignored. Is there some issue with maybe say whitespace malformed yaml? Just guessing now

As posted above,

embed_graph:
  enabled: true # if true, will generate node2vec embeddings for nodes
  num_walks: 10
  walk_length: 40
  window_size: 2
  iterations: 3
  random_seed: 597832

umap:
  enabled: true # if true, will generate UMAP embeddings for nodes

snapshots:
  graphml: true
  raw_entities: true
  top_level_nodes: true

embed_graph, graphml, raw_entities, umap, and top_level_nodes are not being generated.

This issue has been marked stale due to inactivity after repo maintainer or community member responses that request more information or suggest a solution. It will be closed after five additional days.

Having a similar issue, default settings.yaml works fine. I tried the prompt tuning, and put the tuned prompts inside prompts_tuned folder, I copied the settings.yaml to settings_prompts_tuned.yaml and update all the prompt, cache, output paths, when I index there are two issues: 1. empty workflow, 2. indexing-engine.log still generated inside output folder instead of output_prompts_tuned folder, while logs.json is generated inside output_prompts_tuned folder.

[ZhengRui]

After a bit debugging, I found that --config and --overlay-defaults have to be used together, only use --config will cause empty workflow issue. also indexing-engine.log path is hard coded into output folder in _enable_logging() function. My experiment is based at commit c749fe2.
