1. RuntimeError: Set changed size during iteration

Solution:

There isn't a permanent solution for this one but this is just irritating. If you are facing this issue then temp fix is whenever you get this error, change any file e.g. add new empty lines in a file. Let the server reload It may or may not work fine for the first time and will show that error again and try this again and again by removing or adding lines so that server reloads and it will run at some point.

2. FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: Path('/edx/app/edxapp/edx-platform/themes/adg-edx-theme/edx-platform/')

Solution:

• This is because you have not cloned adg-theme in edx-platform/themes. Follow devstack readme from here.
