I'm trying to run ray head node on a VirtualBox(lubuntu18.04) with the command
ray start --head --port='2121' 2121 is the port forwarding port
I get a normal ray runtime message.
From my local machine, I'm initializing ray as
ray.init(address='auto', redis_password='5241590000000000')
It is unable to detect ray. It raises the error.
Traceback (most recent call last):

ConnectionError: Could not find any running Ray instance. Please specify the one to connect to by setting `address`.
I checked port forwarding by running the following code on virtualbox
python -m http.server 2121
In the local machine, I was able to see the files in the folder using localhost:2121 Hence, the port forwarding seems to be working fine. I'm unable to spot the mistake in the ray.init() command. I assumed address='auto' should be able to detect ray. But it does not seem to work
