are you using the Llama Cpp? I am encountering the same issue

[Mohamedballouch]

@adriacabeza yes im using gpt4all

llm = LlamaCpp(model_path="./gpt4all-converted.bin") # model 
llama_embeddings = LlamaCppEmbeddings(model_path="./gpt4all-converted.bin")  # embeddings
docsearch = FAISS.from_texts(texts, llama_embeddings)

I'm getting same error, but running:

from langchain.chains import RetrievalQA

qa = RetrievalQA.from_chain_type(
    llm=llm, 
    chain_type="stuff", 
    retriever=index.vectorstore.as_retriever()
)

query = "De que se trata el decreto 4927?"
qa.run(query)

I got this error too: llama_tokenize: too many tokens

I encountered the same error, with a similar setup, where I used Chroma and RetrievalQAWithSourcesChain. When using RetrievalQA.from_chain_type and the .run(query) method instead, I can successfully get results.

This works:

from langchain.vectorstores import Chroma
db = Chroma.from_documents(texts, embeddings)
retriever = db.as_retriever()
from langchain.chains import RetrievalQA
qa = RetrievalQA.from_chain_type(llm=llm, chain_type="stuff", retriever=retriever)
query = """Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request. 

How many items are listed?"""
print(qa.run(query))

This throws the error:

from langchain.vectorstores import Chroma
db = Chroma.from_documents(texts, embeddings)
retriever = db.as_retriever()
from langchain.chains import RetrievalQA
qa = RetrievalQAWithSourcesChain.from_chain_type(llm=llm, chain_type="stuff", retriever=retriever)
query = """Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request. 

docs = db.similarity_search(query)
print(qa({"question": query}, return_only_outputs=True)) 

[calderonsteven]

Try this walk-around, passing the search_kwargs={"k": MIN_DOCS} force the doc search to use only one document, I realize that the error happens when there is only one document loaded for Q&A.

from langchain.chains import RetrievalQA

# Just getting a single result document from the knowledge lookup is fine...
MIN_DOCS = 1

qa = RetrievalQA.from_chain_type(
    llm=llm, 
    chain_type="stuff", 
    retriever=docsearch.as_retriever(search_kwargs={"k": MIN_DOCS})
)

query = "De que trata el DECRETO 4927 DE 2011 en colombia?"
qa.run(query)

same error occured

[seancummins1]

Review the content that you have indexed. Ensure you dont have any special characters or escaping characters in your dataset IE: " or /
I found my data to contain this as it was scaped from a url directly into text file hence had markup which was causing the issue.

I am experiencing the same issue with the following commands:

llm = LlamaCpp(model_path=r"D:\AI\Model\vicuna-13B-1.1-GPTQ-4bit-128g.GGML.bin",n_ctx=2048, seed=5, n_threads=7, temperature = 0, repeat_penalty=1, echo=True,f16_kv=True)

text_splitter = CharacterTextSplitter()
with open(r"D:\AI\Langchain\mydoc.txt", encoding='utf-8') as f:
    state_of_the_union = f.read()
texts = text_splitter.split_text(state_of_the_union)

docs = [Document(page_content=t) for t in texts[:3]]

chain = load_summarize_chain(llm, chain_type="map_reduce")
myoutput = chain.run(docs)

myDoc.txt is long, gets broken into parts (by langchain), the 2 first parts get summarize well, then the error occurred with the 3rd part. The 3rd part is longer than the 1st and 2nd part.

myDoc.txt does not have any special characters.

I suspect the problem comes from configuration of Size of context, vs Size of parts of text

[sergedc]

Try this walk-around, passing the search_kwargs={"k": MIN_DOCS} force the doc search to use only one document, I realize that the error happens when there is only one document loaded for Q&A.

from langchain.chains import RetrievalQA

# Just getting a single result document from the knowledge lookup is fine...
MIN_DOCS = 1

qa = RetrievalQA.from_chain_type(
    llm=llm, 
    chain_type="stuff", 
    retriever=docsearch.as_retriever(search_kwargs={"k": MIN_DOCS})
)

query = "De que trata el DECRETO 4927 DE 2011 en colombia?"
qa.run(query)

How would this apply in the case of load_summarize_chain ?
Do I try that?
chain = load_summarize_chain(llm, chain_type="map_reduce", retriever=docsearch.as_retriever(search_kwargs={"k": MIN_DOCS}))

I am encountering the same issue when using Chroma.from_documents to load pdf documents by llama.cpp embeddings. BTW, I have tried multiple models like gpt4all, vicuna and alpaca.

I have tried the same way with a pdf only includes simple sentence, and works totally fine. I think the content might cause the issue.

[Sh1d0w]

I am getting the same error by following the official tutorial from the docs: https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/indexes/retrievers/examples/chroma_self_query_retriever.html

The only difference is that I use LlamaCpp with LlamaCppEmbeddings and ggml-gpt4all-l13b-snoozy.bin

Hi, @Mohamedballouch! I'm Dosu, and I'm helping the LangChain team manage their backlog. I wanted to let you know that we are marking this issue as stale.

From what I understand, the issue you reported is about a runtime error when trying to tokenize a text. It seems that the error message indicates that the text being tokenized is "b" and the number of tokens is -908. Other users have encountered the same issue and have provided potential workarounds, such as passing search_kwargs={"k": MIN_DOCS} to force the doc search to use only one document. Some users suspect that the issue may be related to the configuration of the size of the context versus the size of parts of the text.

However, it seems that the issue has been resolved by using the workaround suggested by other users. By passing search_kwargs={"k": MIN_DOCS}, the runtime error when tokenizing the text is no longer occurring.

Before we close this issue, we wanted to check with you if it is still relevant to the latest version of the LangChain repository. If it is, please let us know by commenting on the issue. Otherwise, feel free to close the issue yourself, or it will be automatically closed in 7 days.

Thank you for your contribution to the LangChain repository!
