Hello to the VIAME/DIVE response team!

After trying to train a model or run a pipeline on VIAME/DIVE web, I received an error code. My last successful attempt was on February 28, 2025. I don't understand why this is happening now. Can you help?

Thanks :)

Hey, unfortunately this issue is unrelated to you and every 4-5 days the web server loses access to the GPU and needs a reboot ever since an NVIDIA driver update a month or two ago. We’re looking into the issue now, however.
