mlflow: Tracking Server not working as a proxy for localhost

Willingness to contribute

No. I cannot contribute a bug fix at this time.

MLflow version

1.25.1

System information

• localhost: GitBash
• Remote Host: Kubernetes POD
• Artifact Destination: AWS S3
• Python 3.7.2

Describe the problem

I am having similar issue to what was posted here: https://github.com/mlflow/mlflow/issues/5659 Unfortunately, the solution provided hasn’t worked for me. When running a modeling script on the Remote Host, the artifacts get stored in S3 properly. When I run from localhost, I get:

botocore.exceptions.NoCredentialsError: Unable to locate credentials

I have determined that it expects to use local creds when running on localhost instead of the ones on the Tracking Server. Hoping somebody has more suggestions of things to try or look for.

Tracking information

Tracking & Artifact uri look as expected. Not sharing for security reasons.

Code to reproduce issue

mlflow.set_tracking_uri("masked")

mlflow.set_experiment("masked")
with mlflow.start_run():
.
.
.
    plt.savefig('plot.png')
    print(mlflow.get_tracking_uri())
    print(mlflow.get_artifact_uri())
    mlflow.log_artifact("plot.png")

Other info / logs

botocore.exceptions.NoCredentialsError: Unable to locate credentials
