Qdrant is an advanced vector search engine designed to handle large-scale, high-dimensional vector data. It is particularly useful for applications involving machine learning and artificial intelligence, where efficient similarity search is crucial. Qdrant provides a robust platform for managing and querying vector data, making it a popular choice for developers working with complex datasets.
When working with Qdrant, you might encounter an error message stating 'Database Not Found'. This issue typically arises when attempting to access a database that does not exist on the Qdrant server. The error prevents further operations and can disrupt the workflow if not addressed promptly.
The 'Database Not Found' error indicates that the specified database name does not match any existing databases on the Qdrant server. This can occur due to a typo in the database name, an attempt to access a database that has not been created, or a misconfiguration in the server settings.
To fix the 'Database Not Found' error, follow these steps:
Ensure that the database name you are using in your connection string or API call is correct. Double-check for any typos or case sensitivity issues. For example, if your database is named 'my_database', ensure that it is spelled exactly as such in your code.
Confirm that the database has been created on the Qdrant server. You can list all existing databases using the Qdrant API:
curl -X GET 'http://localhost:6333/databases'
If the database is not listed, you need to create it using the following command:
curl -X POST 'http://localhost:6333/databases' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"name": "my_database"}'
Ensure that your Qdrant server is configured correctly and running. Check the server logs for any errors that might indicate configuration issues. You can access the logs by navigating to the server's log directory or using system commands like journalctl if running on a Linux system.
For more detailed information on managing databases in Qdrant, refer to the official Qdrant documentation. If you continue to experience issues, consider reaching out to the Qdrant community on GitHub for support.
