Troubleshooting Guide (AKIOS V1.0)

Fix common install, config, and runtime issues. Use --debug or JSON mode when you need detail.

Quick diagnosis

akios status                     # overall health
akios --debug status             # verbose
akios audit view --limit 10      # recent events
akios config validate            # config sanity
AKIOS_JSON_MODE=1 akios status   # machine-readable errors

Installation issues

  • Binary/wrapper: chmod +x akios; ensure cwd or PATH; AKIOS_FORCE_PULL=1 ./akios status if image seems stale.
  • Pip: pip show akios; Python ≥3.8; pip uninstall akios && pip install akios (use venv).
  • Docker: docker run hello-world; add user to docker group (Linux) or start Docker Desktop; check volume perms.

Configuration issues

  • .env problems: open .env; fix concatenated providers (grokopenaigrok); ensure KEY=value; rerun akios setup --force.
  • Provider/model validation: use supported pairs (openai:gpt-4/4o, anthropic:claude-3.5-haiku/sonnet, grok:grok-3, mistral:mistral-large, gemini:gemini-1.5-pro); names are case-insensitive.
  • Config YAML errors: validate via python3 -c "import yaml; yaml.safe_load(open('config.yaml'))"; check required fields and indentation.

Workflow execution issues

  • Template not found: ./akios templates list; verify file exists.
  • Validation failed: ensure each step has agent, action, parameters; allowed agents: llm, http, filesystem, tool_executor.
  • Filesystem agent: "Path not allowed" → add to allowed_paths; check file perms.
  • LLM agent: missing/invalid API key or unsupported model → fix .env; test quota.
  • HTTP agent: enable network_access_allowed; verify URL/SSL; increase timeout if needed.

Docker-specific

  • File ops hang on macOS/Windows VMs: update Docker Desktop; if needed set sandbox_enabled: false (uses container isolation only).
  • Image outdated: docker pull akiosai/akios:v1.0.0 or set AKIOS_FORCE_PULL=1.

Security validation

  • "SECURITY VALIDATION FAILED": on native Linux ensure kernel ≥5.4 and seccomp; on macOS/Windows use Docker mode.
  • PII in logs: confirm pii_redaction_enabled: true and audit_enabled: true.

Emergency recovery

  1. Stop runs: pkill -f akios
  2. Backup: cp -r data/ data.backup
  3. Reset config: ./akios setup --force
  4. Clean caches: ./akios clean all
