After installing plugins - No way to circumvent
After installing plugins, not sure which, I get this error.
Is there a way to disable loading plugins in order to find out which one is the problem and how to resolve?
It seems I'll have to re-install the app and haven't even been able to test anything out. But the problem is, I will have to slowly , painfully test out each plugin . I"m sure there is a better way?
Thanks for reporting this. Could you please share a screenshot or a short video of the issue? It’ll help us understand what’s going on and fix it faster. Thanks!
Sure. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ka344vjMBig
Please see the edit above. I realized you also can't copy the output from the UI, so I can't actually show you here what the errors are except for the video. Being able to copy that info would be helpful.
Thanks for recording and explaining the error as well! Something definitely seems to be off but the DEBUG steps you highlighted were not the errors as those things showing up is expected. I could see upon scrolling down that there was some error in starting up the API itself. I think installing some plugin is the reason this broke and I'm very sorry you have to go through this. If you'd be willing, could you open up Powershell on your windows device and type the following commands and send me a screenshot?
wsl
cd ~/.transformerlab/workspace/plugins
This will show me what plugins you have installed and I can help you out from there.
Just verifying the error you posted above doesn't happen anymore right?
It would also be super helpful to get your logs so we can verify what went wrong. You can find those using the following commands:
wsl
cd ~/.transformerlab
In this directory you'll find 2 files named local_server.log and transformerlab.log, it would be super helpful if you could send those over and I'll help you figure out what went wrong!
Not a problem. I would be happy to help>

Hi @MarkPhsd,
Seems to me that the issues have been caused by an incomplete installation of t5_lora_trainer.
I would suggest starting with a clean slate. If you could just do a rm -rf ~/.transformerlab/workspace/plugins/*, this would delete all installed plugins and then starting the app should work without you losing any other data.
Thank you! My humble suggestion as a fellow supporter of software. I suggest you have a setings button the user can do this before the startup process; because otherwise it seems like the app is unusable at this point.
When i was installing plugins, There were several times where the plugin installer would just keep spinning; so i would chose to install another at the same time. Maybe because I took the option to just press install on a bunch at the same time, thinking they would all install just fine.
Also maybe disable simultaneous installs of plugins. Not worth the hassle.
Thanks for the feedback — really helpful! We’ll definitely take this into account :-)
