I suppose it should run, I'll provide some reproducible code here in a minute.

Hi @ryanpeach,

Great to see you again in our community! I appreciate the detailed information you've provided about the issue you're encountering with LangChain. I'm going to start looking into this for you and will get back to you with a more comprehensive answer soon.

dosubot · 2023-11-14T20:48:53Z

🤖

Based on the error message you're encountering, it seems like the 'openai' module in your environment does not have an attribute named 'error'. This issue could be due to an update in the 'openai' module where the 'error' attribute has been removed or renamed.

There have been similar issues reported in the LangChain repository, where the 'openai' module's update caused some attributes to be inaccessible. The suggested solution in these cases was to downgrade the 'openai' module to version 0.28.1 and LangChain to version 0.0.330. This can be done by running the following commands in the terminal:

pip install openai==0.28.1
pip install langchain==0.0.330

This solution has been confirmed to work by multiple users in the discussion of the issues #12956, #12967, and #12943.

However, please note that this is a temporary fix. The LangChain team is likely working on an update to support the latest version of the 'openai' module. Until then, using the previous 'openai' versions should work.

If downgrading the 'openai' module does not resolve the issue, it could be due to a naming conflict or an improper installation of the 'openai' module. Please ensure that there are no files or modules in your project that could conflict with 'openai' and that the 'openai' module is properly installed.

If the issue persists after trying these solutions, please provide more information about your environment and the steps you've taken so far. This will help in diagnosing the problem and finding a solution.

ryanpeach · 2023-11-14T21:16:39Z

Very good summary @dosubot! I suspect this got missed by the rest of the team though. Its in the embeddings api which is less commonly used. I also can't downgrade, I need to stay current with llama_index, and the repo has the incentive to fix this.

dosubot · 2023-11-14T21:27:55Z

🤖

Based on the context provided, it seems that the issue you're encountering is related to changes in the OpenAI Python client. The AttributeError suggests that the 'openai' module is being used in a way that is not compatible with its current version.

The 'openai.error' attribute is not being used in the 'openai.py' file in the LangChain repository. The error might be occurring in another part of your code where the OpenAI module is being used.

You might want to check the usage of the OpenAI module in your code, especially any usage of 'openai.error', and compare it with the OpenAI Python client documentation to ensure it's being used correctly. If the issue persists, you might want to consider downgrading to an earlier version of the OpenAI Python client that is known to work with your current setup.

Also, ensure that the AzureOpenAI class is being used correctly, as it seems to be a custom class that interacts with the OpenAI API. Make sure that the 'openai' module is correctly imported and used within this class.

Here are the relevant sources for your reference:

As for the changes made in the OpenAI Python client version 1.2.4 that could potentially cause the 'openai' module to not have an attribute named 'error', I wasn't able to find specific information within the LangChain repository. You might want to check the OpenAI Python client's release notes or documentation for more details.

Please let me know if you need further assistance.

Been particularly hard to track down a minimal reproducible example in my codebase. I'll let this thread know tomorrow if I discover one.

EmiRoberti77 · 2023-11-15T18:37:06Z

Hello All, i had some problem and was reluctant to downgrade , so i tried first latest version available in case issue was fixed and problem seems to have been fixed on
openai==1.3.0
langchain==0.0.335

DannyGsGit · 2023-11-30T16:59:28Z

This does not appear to be fixed as of:
openai==1.3.6
langchain==0.0.343

The issue arises in Langchain's embeddings.openai in the retry chunk.

retry_if_exception_type(openai.error.Timeout) | retry_if_exception_type(openai.error.APIError) | retry_if_exception_type(openai.error.APIConnectionError) | retry_if_exception_type(openai.error.RateLimitError) | retry_if_exception_type(openai.error.ServiceUnavailableError)

As of version 1.0.0, openai package now follows the convention openai.Timeout, openai.RateLimitError, etc... with no .error.

zhifei92 · 2023-12-26T02:11:24Z

Same trouble

deniercounter · 2024-01-03T09:26:43Z

@fgabriel1891 Usually this comes if you dont import openai.

Correct way:

from langchain.chat_models import ChatOpenAI
import openai

Here the issue is running
You can find some alternatives based on your project. In my case, this worked.
