Troubleshooting

Common Issues

MCP Server Connection Failed

Symptoms: Connection refused errors, Timeout connecting to MCP server, URL not responding

Cause: MCP server not running or incorrect URL configuration

Solution:

• Verify MCP server is running and accessible
• Check URL in configuration matches server endpoint
• Ensure network/firewall allows connection to server port
• Test connection with curl or browser before agent integration

Tool Schema Validation Errors

Symptoms: Invalid input format errors, Schema mismatch warnings, Type validation failures

Cause: Input data does not match MCP tool schema

Solution:

• Use CLI to inspect tool schema: aiq info mcp --url <url> --tool <name>
• Validate input data matches expected types and required fields
• Check JSON schema definitions in MCP server documentation
• Convert inputs to proper format (dict, JSON string, or schema instance)

Framework Integration Issues

Symptoms: Import errors, Framework not found, Incompatible versions

Cause: Missing or incompatible framework dependencies

Solution:

• Ensure target framework (LangChain, LlamaIndex, etc.) is installed
• Check version compatibility between AIQ toolkit and framework
• Install framework-specific dependencies as needed
• Refer to documentation for framework-specific configuration

Performance Bottlenecks

Symptoms: Slow agent responses, High token usage, Workflow timeouts

Cause: Inefficient tool usage or workflow design

Solution:

• Enable observability to identify bottlenecks
• Use profiling features to analyze tool and agent performance
• Review token tracking metrics to optimize LLM calls
• Consider hyperparameter tuning for agent optimization

OpenTelemetry Integration Errors

Symptoms: Observability data not appearing, Telemetry export failures, Missing metrics

Cause: OpenTelemetry not properly configured

Solution:

• Verify OpenTelemetry collector is running
• Check observability configuration in AIQ settings
• Ensure proper instrumentation of agent workflows
• Review OpenTelemetry export settings and endpoints

Alibaba Cloud OpenSearch not appearing in NVIDIA Agent Intelligence Toolkit

Symptoms: Server not listed, Tools not available

Cause: Configuration or installation issue

Solution:

• Verify configuration syntax
• Check Alibaba Cloud OpenSearch installation
• Restart NVIDIA Agent Intelligence Toolkit
• Check logs for error messages
