[SOLVED] Pysyft Federated learning, Error with Websockets

Pysyft Federated learning, Error with Websockets

I am trying to run a federated learning from pysyft (https://github.com/OpenMined/PySyft/blob/dev/examples/tutorials/advanced/websockets-example-MNIST-parallel/Asynchronous-federated-learning-on-MNIST.ipynb) that creates remote workers and connect to them via websockets. however I am getting an error in folllowing evaluation step.

future: <Task finished coro=<WebsocketServerWorker._producer_handler() done, defined at C:\Users\Public\Anaconda\lib\site-packages\syft\workers\websocket_server.py:95> exception=AttributeError("'dict' object has no attribute 'owner'")>
Traceback (most recent call last):

    register_response_function = register_response_functions[attr_id]
KeyError: 'evaluate'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

There are no clear answer from their forum. does anyone have any clue as to what the issue is in this script.

My syft version:

syft : 0.2.3a1
syft-proto : 0.1.1a1.post12
torch : 1.4.0
