Hey, I’m new !

I can’t get rid of this issue. I’m using : rasa\_core 0.14.0 rasa\_nlu 0.15.0 tensorflow 1.13.1 rasa\_core\_sdk 0.14.0 And Python 3.7

With this command:

> starter-pack-rasa-stack\>python -m rasa\_core\_sdk.endpoint --actions actions

I get this issue:

> 2019-05-17 11:28:54 INFO **main** - Starting action endpoint server… 2019-05-17 11:28:54 ERROR rasa\_core\_sdk.executor - **Failed to register package ‘actions’**.

Nevertheless, I had my own action, but now, I’m using actions from RASA-demo Here is the python code of my actions.py

Where is `actions.py` located? The file needs to be in current working directory.
