Start a flask application in separate thread

You’re running Flask in debug mode, which enables the reloader (reloads the Flask server when your code changes).

Flask can run just fine in a separate thread, but the reloader expects to run in the main thread.


To solve your issue, you should either disable debug (app.debug = False), or disable the reloader (app.use_reloader=False).

Those can also be passed as arguments to app.run: app.run(debug=True, use_reloader=False).
