Error when trying to launch private swarm using locally stored model

[sdryluth]

Hi,

I am trying to launch a private swarm using a model I have downloaded to a local directory, which I think in theory should work fine. However, it presents an error when I try to run the command to start the first server.

This is what I'm getting.

python -m petals.cli.run_server lzlv --new_swarm

My setup using the same command works fine when I launch it using the huggingface path for the same model. The folder I reference on my machine contains the model downloaded right from huggingface including config.json.
