I’ve installed version 0.19.5 on a couple of systems using the server deploy instructions and the installation is not picking up my RASA_HOME setting as the install dir. The release notes for 0.19.3 state that this should work.
Has anyone else found RASA_HOME to work with the server deployment method?
Hi @stephens, how are you setting the RASA_HOME variable before installing? Would you mind trying this again with 0.20 which was released a few days ago?
I’m running under the bash shell on Ubuntu 16.04.
export RASA_HOME=/home/rasa
curl -sSL -o install.sh https://storage.googleapis.com/rasa-x-releases/stable/install.sh
sudo bash ./install.sh
I’ll give the new release a try.
@stephens since you’re running as sudo the existing env var won’t be propagated into the command. You need to run sudo with the -E flag, i.e.
export RASA_HOME=/home/rasa
curl -sSL -o install.sh https://storage.googleapis.com/rasa-x-releases/stable/install.sh
sudo -E bash ./install.sh
@ricwo thanks for the solution.
Just a quick note that in the current tutorial Docker-Compose Quick Install there is a small confusion in the command (it’s sudo bash -E ./install.sh instead of sudo -E bash ./install.sh). It might seem quite trivial but someone could spend a lot of time figuring out why the first command does not work and where that rasa x installation folder actually is.
I am already running a bot ,but i want to deploy another bot using same instance is it possible? First bot was in root, now i want to change the folder and tried this and nothing happened.
azureuser@instance-3:~$ export RASA_HOME=/home/rasa/dir
azureuser@instance-3:~$ sudo -E bash ./install.sh # -E will preserve the environment variable you set
