I’m trying to run the [restaurant booking example](https://github.com/RasaHQ/rasa/tree/master/examples/formbot) in a straightforward docker-compose configuration. I’ve had it working previously, but since pulling a more recent container I’m getting an error (I think relating to calling the custom actions). The key error seems to be: ```auto 2019-09-30 10:55:44 WARNING rasa.core.processor - No policy ensemble or domain set. Skipping action prediction and execution. ``` Grateful for any help in fixing this, please I’ve included the key aspects of the configuration below * * * `endpoints.yml` ```auto action_endpoint: url: http://action_server:5055/webhook ``` `credentials.yml` ```auto socketio: user_message_evt: user_uttered bot_message_evt: bot_uttered session_persistence: true rest: ``` `config.yml` ```auto language: en pipeline: - name: WhitespaceTokenizer - name: CRFEntityExtractor - name: EntitySynonymMapper - name: CountVectorsFeaturizer token_pattern: (?u)\b\w+\b - name: EmbeddingIntentClassifier - name: DucklingHTTPExtractor #url: http://localhost:8000 url: http://duckling:8000 dimensions: - number policies: - name: FallbackPolicy - name: MemoizationPolicy - name: FormPolicy - name: MappingPolicy ``` `docker-compose.yml` ```auto version: '3.0' services: action_server: image: rasa/rasa-sdk:latest ports: - 5055:5055 volumes: - .\app\actions:/app/actions rasa-svc: image: rasa/rasa:latest ports: - 5005:5005 - 5006:5006 - 5002:5002 volumes: - .\app:/app command: - run - --enable-api - --cors user: root duckling: image: rasa/duckling ports: - 8000:8000 webchat: image: nginx:alpine ports: - 100:80 volumes: - .\web:/usr/share/nginx/html:ro ``` docker-compose - log ```auto Creating network "rasa-examples_default" with the default driver Creating rasa-examples_rasa-svc_1 ... done Creating rasa-examples_duckling_1 ... done Creating rasa-examples_action_server_1 ... done Creating rasa-examples_webchat_1 ... done Attaching to rasa-examples_duckling_1, rasa-examples_webchat_1, rasa-examples_rasa-svc_1, rasa-examples_action_server_1 duckling_1 | no port specified, defaulting to port 8000 duckling_1 | Listening on http://0.0.0.0:8000 action_server_1 | 2019-09-30 10:55:33 INFO rasa_sdk.endpoint - Starting action endpoint server... action_server_1 | 2019-09-30 10:55:33 INFO rasa_sdk.executor - Registered function for 'restaurant_form'. action_server_1 | 2019-09-30 10:55:33 INFO rasa_sdk.endpoint - Action endpoint is up and running. on ('0.0.0.0', 5055) rasa-svc_1 | 2019-09-30 10:55:38 INFO engineio.server - Server initialized for sanic. rasa-svc_1 | 2019-09-30 10:55:38 INFO root - Starting Rasa server on http://localhost:5005 webchat_1 | 172.27.0.1 - - [30/Sep/2019:10:55:39 +0000] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 304 0 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/77.0.3865.90 Safari/537.36" "-" webchat_1 | 172.27.0.1 - - [30/Sep/2019:10:55:39 +0000] "GET /static/imgs/favicon.ico HTTP/1.1" 200 180396 "http://localhost:100/" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/77.0.3865.90 Safari/537.36" "-" rasa-svc_1 | 2019-09-30 10:55:40 INFO engineio.server - b5d9fed6eeba4d2ca8de8db1074a1576: Sending packet OPEN data {'sid': 'b5d9fed6eeba4d2ca8de8db1074a1576', 'upgrades': ['websocket'], 'pingTimeout': 60000, 'pingInterval': 25000} rasa-svc_1 | 2019-09-30 10:55:40 INFO engineio.server - b5d9fed6eeba4d2ca8de8db1074a1576: Sending packet MESSAGE data 0 rasa-svc_1 | 2019-09-30 10:55:40 INFO engineio.server - b5d9fed6eeba4d2ca8de8db1074a1576: Received request to upgrade to websocket rasa-svc_1 | 2019-09-30 10:55:40 INFO engineio.server - b5d9fed6eeba4d2ca8de8db1074a1576: Received packet MESSAGE data 2["session_request",{"session_id":"8d9eccf4896940afa86776d397368e43"}] rasa-svc_1 | 2019-09-30 10:55:40 INFO socketio.server - received event "session_request" from b5d9fed6eeba4d2ca8de8db1074a1576 [/] rasa-svc_1 | 2019-09-30 10:55:40 INFO socketio.server - emitting event "session_confirm" to b5d9fed6eeba4d2ca8de8db1074a1576 [/] rasa-svc_1 | 2019-09-30 10:55:40 INFO engineio.server - b5d9fed6eeba4d2ca8de8db1074a1576: Sending packet MESSAGE data 2["session_confirm","8d9eccf4896940afa86776d397368e43"] rasa-svc_1 | 2019-09-30 10:55:40 INFO engineio.server - b5d9fed6eeba4d2ca8de8db1074a1576: Upgrade to websocket successful rasa-svc_1 | 2019-09-30 10:55:44 INFO engineio.server - b5d9fed6eeba4d2ca8de8db1074a1576: Received packet MESSAGE data 2["user_uttered",{"message":"hello","customData":{"userId":"456"},"session_id":"8d9eccf4896940afa86776d397368e43"}] rasa-svc_1 | 2019-09-30 10:55:44 INFO socketio.server - received event "user_uttered" from b5d9fed6eeba4d2ca8de8db1074a1576 [/] rasa-svc_1 | 2019-09-30 10:55:44 WARNING root - Could not parse timestamp 311ea036f1f04999924391610ebeb476.

This seems to be working again after running `rasa init` in the app folder, and then copying the original files back in (and training again). I’m not sure why this fixed it - any ideas? ---

For me it worked when I retrained the model. The error reads `Error: HTTPConnectionPool(host='localhost', port=8000)`, so as you can see from that it still tries to reach Duckling under localhost. Changing the `config.yml` to ` - name: DucklingHTTPExtractor url: http://duckling:8000` only works if you retrain the model, since while training the model, also the `config.yml` is stored as part of the model. If you do not retrain, then still the old `config.yml` with `- name: DucklingHTTPExtractor #url: http://localhost:8000` will be used.
