Hi @siriusraja, What version of rasa and asyncio do you have?

3

Hi Varun

Here are the versions rasa = 1.6.1

I am not able to see anything specific to asyncio. here are those that start with async

async-generator 1.10 async-timeout 3.0.1

4

Try installing asyncio==3.4.3. Try running rasa shell now.

Hi @varunsapre10

Tried installed asyncio. But still getting the same error.

6

Try creating a new rasa project by “rasa init”. If that doesn’t work, reinstall rasa. Don’t forget to install asyncio.

Thanks, Will try and let you know.

Hi @varunsapre10

Tried the below options

  1. creating a new project using rasa init
  2. reinstalling in the same virtual env
  3. created a new virtual env and installed

But same error persists.
