Fix ConnectionRefusedError

in vLLM

Solution

ConnectionRefusedError in vllm usually indicates that the vllm inference server is not running or is not accessible on the specified host and port. Ensure the vllm server is started correctly with the correct host and port settings before initiating client requests. If running in a distributed environment confirm the head node address and port are correctly configured and reachable from the worker nodes.
