Answer 1

I get this error when trying to install your packages with pip install -r requirements.txt:

ERROR: Cannot install -r requirements.txt (line 5) and starlette==0.18.0
because these package versions have conflicting dependencies.

The conflict is caused by:
The user requested starlette==0.18.0
fastapi 0.73.0 depends on starlette==0.17.1

There must be some conflict between your dependencies. Try making a clean install of FastAPI.

If you suspect that there’s a version issue, try installing your requirements from scratch.

If you want to prevent such conflicts in the future, a popular solution is to use a dependency management tool, such as pipenv or poetry.

Answer 2

which uvicorn
which python

I got same error when run Python 3.10.x from virtual environment, but uvicorn was external with Python 3.7. Installing uvicorn to virtialenv solved the problem.
