# π§ GEMINI MCP SERVER - DEPLOYMENT FIXES
## π
**Updated:** July 29, 2025
---
## β
**FIXES APPLIED:**
### **1. Port Configuration Fixed** π
- **Changed:** `EXPOSE 8000` β `EXPOSE 7860`
- **Reason:** Hugging Face Spaces expects port 7860
- **File:** `Dockerfile`
### **2. Health Check Fixed** π₯
- **Changed:** `curl` β `python requests`
- **Reason:** `curl` not available in container
- **File:** `Dockerfile`
### **3. Startup Command Fixed** β‘
- **Changed:** `CMD ["python", "app.py"]` β `CMD ["uvicorn", "app:app", "--host", "0.0.0.0", "--port", "7860"]`
- **Reason:** Direct uvicorn startup for better container compatibility
- **File:** `Dockerfile`
### **4. Added Simple Health Endpoint** β
- **Added:** `/health` endpoint for Docker health checks
- **File:** `app.py`
---
## π§ **UPDATED FILES:**
### **Dockerfile Changes:**
```dockerfile
# OLD (causing build failure):
EXPOSE 8000
HEALTHCHECK --interval=30s --timeout=10s --start-period=5s --retries=3 \
CMD curl -f http://localhost:8000/mcp/health || exit 1
CMD ["python", "app.py"]
# NEW (fixed):
EXPOSE 7860
HEALTHCHECK --interval=30s --timeout=10s --start-period=5s --retries=3 \
CMD python -c "import requests; requests.get('http://localhost:7860/health')" || exit 1
CMD ["uvicorn", "app:app", "--host", "0.0.0.0", "--port", "7860"]
```
### **app.py Changes:**
```python
# Added simple health endpoint:
@app.get("/health")
async def simple_health():
"""Simple health check for Docker"""
return {"status": "ok", "timestamp": datetime.utcnow().isoformat()}
```
---
## π **DEPLOYMENT STEPS:**
### **1. Push Changes to GitHub:**
```bash
cd gemini-mcp-server
git add .
git commit -m "Fix port and health check for Hugging Face Spaces"
git push origin main
```
### **2. Hugging Face Spaces Auto-Deploy:**
- Changes will automatically trigger rebuild
- Monitor build logs in HF Spaces dashboard
- Expected build time: 3-5 minutes
### **3. Test Deployment:**
```bash
# Test health endpoint
curl https://chiragpatankar-gemini-mcp-server.hf.space/health
# Test root endpoint
curl https://chiragpatankar-gemini-mcp-server.hf.space/
# Test MCP health endpoint
curl https://chiragpatankar-gemini-mcp-server.hf.space/mcp/health
```

## π― **EXPECTED RESULTS:**
### **β
After Fix:**
- **Build Status:** β
SUCCESS
- **Health Check:** β
`/health` responds with `{"status": "ok"}`
- **Port:** β
Running on port 7860
- **AI Chat:** β
Gemini integration working
- **Frontend Integration:** β
Chat interface connects
### **π§ͺ Test URLs:**
1. **Health:** https://chiragpatankar-gemini-mcp-server.hf.space/health
2. **Root:** https://chiragpatankar-gemini-mcp-server.hf.space/
3. **MCP Health:** https://chiragpatankar-gemini-mcp-server.hf.space/mcp/health
4. **Process:** https://chiragpatankar-gemini-mcp-server.hf.space/mcp/process
---
## π **TROUBLESHOOTING:**
### **If Build Still Fails:**
1. **Check HF Spaces logs** for specific error messages
2. **Verify environment variables** are set in HF Spaces
3. **Test locally:** `docker build -t gemini-mcp . && docker run -p 7860:7860 gemini-mcp`
### **If Health Check Fails:**
1. **Check if requests library is installed**
2. **Verify port 7860 is accessible**
3. **Test with simple Python script**
### **If AI Chat Doesn't Work:**
1. **Verify GEMINI_API_KEY** is set in HF Spaces
2. **Check API key permissions** in Google Cloud Console
3. **Test with curl:** `curl -X POST https://chiragpatankar-gemini-mcp-server.hf.space/mcp/process`
