Stuck on an issue?

And, if you’re still stuck at the end, we’re happy to hop on a call to see how we can help out.

My team encountered a problem with understanding why the experiment fails on the code level. When a python file import is failed (from any reason) inside the action/probe file or even a deeper import chain, the terminal experiment error we receive is: [2020-08-11 16:57:01 ERROR] could not find Python module 'module_name.probes' in activity 'Some Activity Name'

Here’s is a simple reproduction:

  1. Add an invalid import to a probe file or into any sub import file the probe file imports. for example:
import not_exist
  1. Run the experiment with chaos run command.
  2. The above error should be displayed in the terminal.

We wonder why in this specific case, there is no Traceback? something like that:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'not_exist'

Not yet. I need to make time to reproduce and see where this fails.
