I’m stuck! I made chatbot with **Rasa 2.6** and **action server 2.6**. It works in shell mode and then I moved to test with webchat client. **Rasa failed** to [socket.io](http://socket.io) error, which have been issue since version 2.2. So I **downgraded** Action server **to 2.2** but then **Action server failed** with error > ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘typing\_extensions’ So I’m stuck between version 2.6 and 2.2 #Rasa Open Source #actionserver #socketio #rasaopensource ---

@InnoOmnia Check both the container rasa2.6 and rasa action server container’s, that they have the typing\_extensions or not and even check the action.py that you have import the typing? Try executing the code without docker files or docker-compose on the local machine. ---

> [@InnoOmnia](#): > > `typing_extensions` I got it working, fault and solution First Docker file, small changes, but no solution ```auto # Extend the official Rasa SDK image FROM rasa/rasa-sdk:2.2.0 #COPY * /app/ # Use subdirectory as working directory WORKDIR /app # Copy any additional custom requirements, if necessary (uncomment next line) # Change back to root user to install dependencies USER root # Install extra requirements for actions code, if necessary (uncomment next line) # Copy actions folder to working directory COPY ./actions /app/actions # Install extra requirements for actions code, if necessary (uncomment next line) RUN python -m pip install --upgrade pip RUN pip install --no-cache-dir typing_extensions # By best practices, don't run the code with root user USER 1003 ``` after that this command > docker build . -t rasa-sdk:2.2.1 It created these two images ```auto [paulii@vetbot-v4 /pilleribot TUOTANTO]$ docker images REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE rasa-sdk 2.2.1 99378085f6d5 57 minutes ago 165MB rasa/rasa-sdk 2.2.0 a1c9443b5df6 6 months ago 151MB ``` and then this command > docker run -v $(pwd)/actions:/app/actions --net action-link --name action-server-prod rasa/rasa-sdk:2.2.0 and that was the **fault**. Docker build **two** images, **original** (rasa/rasa-sdk 2.2.0) and **modified** one (rasa-sdk 2.2.1). In the command I run, **I used rasa/rasa-sdk:2.2.0, which pointed to original sdk image** , which, of course don’t have _typing\_extensions_ installed. **SOLUTION** Run command > docker run -v $(pwd)/actions:/app/actions --net action-link --name action-server-prod rasa-sdk:2.2.1 which points to modified (and right) docker image (rasa-sdk:2.2.1 )
