Troubleshooting¶
Checks for the CrewAI failures described on the listing and its published getting-started page.
First boot is not active (exited)¶
Cause: sushi-crewai-firstboot is still running, or it failed. The unit
is a one-shot. A successful exit is the ready state.
Fix:
Leave /etc/crewai/ in place. The unit keeps existing state and does not
need a deleted identity to retry.
The demo fails before it writes a manifest¶
Cause: Amazon Nova Lite is not enabled, the instance role cannot call
bedrock:InvokeModel on
arn:aws:bedrock:us-east-1::foundation-model/amazon.nova-lite-v1:0, or
HTTPS egress to Bedrock in us-east-1 is blocked. IMDSv2 must be reachable
by ubuntu.
Fix: correct the permission or the network path, then start a new run. The failed attempt keeps its task directory when one was created. The offline fixture checks local execution without a model call. It does not prove provider access.
sushi-crewai read rejects the directory¶
Cause: --require-provider accepts a real Bedrock manifest and rejects
an offline-fixture manifest. Readback also rejects a skipped tool or a
finding that no longer matches the CSV.
Fix: pass the directory the Bedrock demo printed, not the fixture
directory. Run the read as ubuntu after reconnecting:
Use the fixture's own directory only as local-execution evidence, without
--require-provider.
Totals differ from a previous run¶
Cause: each demo builds a new six-row CSV. The dataset identity and the integer amounts vary. The check is that the reporter's JSON matches that run's CSV, and that an independent reader recomputes the same totals.
Fix: compare result.json with the sales.csv in the same directory.
Do not expect the next run to repeat the same cents.
A restore does not open old results¶
Cause: the restore dropped a directory, changed ownership or modes, or landed on a different application version.
Fix: restore /home/ubuntu/crewai-workspace/,
/home/ubuntu/crewai-results/, and /etc/crewai/ together onto the same
application version. Preserve ownership and modes. Run sushi-crewai read
before new work.
