Failed to connect to Qdrant: [WinError 10061]

[JohnMommers]

I get the following error when creating the embeddings:
Failed to connect to Qdrant: [WinError 10061] Cannot connect because the target computer actively refused the connection.

I added a row to my AVG firewall to allow Qdrant port 6333, however I still get this error.
How to solve this?
Thanks.

Deploy docker and docker compose on your machine local.
Then create compose-file.yaml (ref: https://qdrant.tech/documentation/guides/installation/)

services:
qdrant:
image: qdrant/qdrant:latest
restart: always
container_name: qdrant
ports:
- 6333:6333
- 6334:6334
expose:
- 6333
- 6334
- 6335
configs:
- source: qdrant_config
target: /qdrant/config/production.yaml
volumes:
- ./qdrant_data:/qdrant/storage

configs:
qdrant_config:
content: |
log_level: INFO

Then run : docker-compose up (ensure your file is in the same dir where you executed the command)

This will run qadrant and you can access it from the browser http://localhost:6333/dashboard
Then once you select embedding create from the app this will work fine. @JohnMommers hopefully this will fix the issue you have.

Or directly start a container like this

docker run -p 6333:6333 -p 6334:6334 \
    -v $(pwd)/qdrant_storage:/qdrant/storage:z \
    qdrant/qdrant
