Error 500

[Captain-Bacon]

Hi there,

You have NO idea how exciting this is for a chronic adhd hyperfocus geek non programmer like myself.

I run on a Mac, and port 500 is used for Airplay stuff. I exported the flask run variable to port 5050

export FLASK_RUN_PORT = 5050

and then amended the knowledgebase line:

    this.serverUrl = 'http://localhost:5050';

However it doesn't sseem to be working. Flask is running on port 5050 OK...

But it's 'typing' forever.

When I run an inspect pop-up on it I see the below:

Obviously I'm missing something somewhere as it's not working, and still talking about port 5000. I'm a complete green-horn, so was hoping you could help me figure this out, and then every mac user would be able to do the same.

FWIW I made a little script to run which bypasses some of the command lines

import os
import subprocess

set the environment variables

os.environ['TOKENIZERS_PARALLELISM'] = 'false'
os.environ['OPENAI_API_KEY'] = 'sk....'
os.environ['FLASK_RUN_PORT'] = '5050'

change the working directory

os.chdir('path/to/dir/memex/server')

run the flask app

subprocess.call('FLASK_APP=server flask run', shell=True)

Then saved a plist file so that the startup launcher daemons on the Mac launch the server every time the mac turns on. Saves me having to remember.
