Sometimes a worker might not start up properly for a few different reasons. Here are some common ones to check out: • Missing Required Credentials: Double-check that

LIVEKIT_URL

,

LIVEKIT_API_KEY

, and

LIVEKIT_API_SECRET

are all set correctly in your environment. • Connection Failures: Make sure there aren’t any network hiccups, incorrect server URLs, or invalid API credentials causing trouble. • Configuration Issues: Take a look at parameters like

load_threshold

and confirm that memory limits are set up properly. • Process Initialization Failures: Sometimes issues with starting the inference executor, initializing the process pool, or binding the HTTP server can lead to failures. Here’s a simple way to troubleshoot: 1. First, verify all the required environment variables are in place. 2. Check that your network connection to the LiveKit server is solid. 3. Have a peek at the worker logs to spot any specific error messages. 4. Try running with a minimal setup and then slowly add more complexity to see where things might be going wrong. If you have any error logs or more details handy, feel free to share them—I’m here to help you figure this out!
