Upgrading from ver 2.4.0 to ver 2.8.0 breaks tracing hook

How severe does this issue affect your experience of using Ray?

  • High: It blocks me to complete my task.

I’ve tried upgrading the ray version on my system and i got the following error:

after a bit of digging and trial i found that removing the hook call from the start solved that problem.

i tried going over the hook according to the current docs and it still seems like it should work.
i know tracing is currently an experimental feature but what could change for it to break in this way ?
the hook worked in 2.4.0

@sangcho @rickyyx could you help on this one? Seems related to observability.

just updating,
i tried commenting out the hook content and it still didn’t work,
the only thing that works was removing the call…

can you create an issue with a repro script?

the trace feature still should work yes.

we upgraded our code in areas regarding opentelemetry and the issue disappeared, not sure what caused it. so its working now
