ConnectionRefusedError: [Errno 61] Connection refused

I knew about the module mflow after watching youtube tutorial and tried to test it out.

I was wondering how to use the example notebooks. It seems that none of them worked for me.

Steps I tried

• pip install mlflow
• pip show mlflow (just to confirm I have it)
• export MLFLOW_TRACKING_URI=http://localhost:5000

Then run the any notebook gives following error: ConnectionRefusedError: [Errno 61] Connection refused

Running hello world.py gives following error:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "hello_world.py", line 49, in run(args.alpha,args.run_origin,args.log_artifact=="True") File "hello_world.py", line 38, in run metrics = [ Metric("m1",0.1,now), Metric("m2",0.2,now) ] TypeError: init() missing 1 required positional argument: 'step'

ConnectionRefusedError: [Errno 61] Connection refused

How to get rid of that connection error.

I am working on my own laptop, not on databricks cluster. Does mlflow works in personal laptops?
