Get TwirpError(code=not_found, message=requested room does not exist, status=404)

[aurotripathy]

I get the following error while running egress sample code from: https://docs.livekit.io/agents/ops/recording/ I've verified that my AWS credentials are good by using a boto3-based upload with the credentials.

@aurotripathy could you provide an example session ID where this had occurred?

[aurotripathy]

@davidzhao , first of, thank you, second, could you give me a hint, I'm a newbie livekit user. where can I get the session ID?

[vishnukool]

I have the same problem. Session Id didn't show up in dashboard job_id": "AJ_bZamSWJV7XEX", "dispatch_id": "", "room_name": "voice_assistant_mind-movie-maker_1553"

[aurotripathy]

@vishnukool, could you share how you got hold of the session ID? I'm new to LiveKit. Thank you, Sir

[vishnukool]

Here's another session ID with the same error "RM_nxBMxejAahDx" @davidzhao

And also the roomId if you need it "the-storytellers-mind-movie_2778" at EDT: Jun 5 07:21:52 PM

Hi. I am also coming across same error. Please help.

[davidzhao]

thanks for the report.. looks like this is a race condition on the server side. we are working on a fix.

in the mean time, you can retry 404 responses to get around the timing issue

@aurotripathy @davidzhao , hey guys, is this fixed or was it a bug on code?

experiencing the same issue

[davidzhao]

which API are you experiencing the issue with? the Egress issues should be fixed

[dthejaka]

it happens when im calling: lkapi.egress.start_room_composite_egress(req).

gives the error: livekit.api.twirp_client.TwirpError: TwirpError(code=not_found, message=requested room does not exist, status=404)

sorry, im a newbie to livekit too

[dthejaka]

@aurotripathy I just realized you can't test this on your local, have to setup the UI too (with Auth token) and test. Just putting it here in case you haven't figured it out yet :)

[rohitkhatri]

I'm still facing the issue when using console mode and have setup egress for voice recording.
