k8sgpt opeartor not working with local-ai server: why receiving panic error in k8sgpt operator pod

[szemmour-rh]

Checklist

• I've searched for similar issues and couldn't find anything matching
• I've included steps to reproduce the behavior

Affected Components

• K8sGPT (CLI)
• K8sGPT Operator

K8sGPT Version

No response

Kubernetes Version

No response

Host OS and its Version

No response

Steps to reproduce

1.Install the LocalAI server
helm install local-ai go-skynet/local-ai -f values.yaml

`cat <<EOF > values.yaml

deployment:
image: quay.io/go-skynet/local-ai:latest
env:
threads: 14
contextSize: 512
modelsPath: "/models"

Optionally create a PVC, mount the PV to the LocalAI Deployment,

and download a model to prepopulate the models directory

modelsVolume:
enabled: true
url: "https://gpt4all.io/models/ggml-gpt4all-j.bin"
pvc:
size: 6Gi
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
auth:
# Optional value for HTTP basic access authentication header
basic: "" # 'username:password' base64 encoded
service:
type: ClusterIP
annotations: {}

If using an AWS load balancer, you'll need to override the default 60s load balancer idle timeout

service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-connection-idle-timeout: "1200"

EOF

`
2.Install the K8sGPT operator
helm repo add k8sgpt https://charts.k8sgpt.ai/
helm install k8sgpt-operator k8sgpt/k8sgpt-operator

`kubectl -n local-ai apply -f - << EOF
apiVersion: core.k8sgpt.ai/v1alpha1
kind: K8sGPT
metadata:
name: k8sgpt-local
namespace: local-ai
spec:
backend: localai

use the same model name here as the one you plugged

into the LocalAI helm chart's values.yaml

model: ggml-gpt4all-j.bin

kubernetes-internal DNS name of the local-ai Service

baseUrl: http://local-ai.local-ai.svc.cluster.local:8080/v1

allow K8sGPT to store AI analyses in an in-memory cache,

otherwise your cluster may get throttled :)

noCache: false
version: v0.2.7
enableAI: true
EOF`

Expected behaviour

the K8sGPT operator should deploy K8sGPT and start communicating with local-ai server to load the model

Actual behaviour

oc logs k8sgpt-operator-1-controller-manager-6d6cc59fcc-zrxkg

gives:

hey @szemmour-rh this blog post is outdated and the K8sGPT CR has chnaged significantly; I suggest you go through the README and try again with your local LLM deployment
