SSE Mode: Error when connecting

[eiseleMichael]

Hi everyone,

thanks a lot for this library!

I was just trying out the Echo demo with sse transport and there seems to be an error in the ASGI exception wrapper. The inspector can list the tools and resources, but on every request an error occurs inside starlet (TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable)

# demo.py
from fastmcp import FastMCP

mcp = FastMCP("Echo 🚀")

@mcp.resource("echo://{message}")
def echo_resource(message: str) -> str:
    """Echo a message as a resource"""
    return f"Resource echo: {message}"

@mcp.tool()
def echo_tool(message: str) -> str:
    """Echo a message as a tool"""
    return f"Tool echo: {message}"

@mcp.prompt()
def echo_prompt(message: str) -> str:
    """Create an echo prompt"""
    return f"Please process this message: {message}"

if __name__ == "__main__":
    mcp.run(transport="sse")

Then executing python demo.py and fastmcp dev demo.py and connect via localhost:8000/sse.

I included a minimal reproduction repo here: https://github.com/eiseleMichael/fastmcp-sse-test

Let me know if you need more info or if I'm just using it wrong :-)

Unfortunately, I’m encountering the same problem while trying to use SSE transport. I was wondering if anyone has made progress on identifying the root cause or has any leads on how to resolve this? Any pointers would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help shed some light on this! 🙏

To address this issue, I have proposed a PR #77, which introduces a fix to use Mount instead of Route for SSE message handling. This solution aims to resolve the ASGI exception and eliminate the “NoneType object is not callable” error

did anyone get this fixed? Getting a similar issue with fastapi, fastmcp

This happens if you try to use the FastMCP object in an ASGI server such as uvicorn. Eg instead of this:

mcp = FastMCP("MyServer")

started like this:

uvicorn --reload mcp_main:mcp

instead have this:

mcp = FastMCP("MyServer")
app = mcp.http_app()    # Or `mcp.http_app(transport="sse")` for sse

started like this:

uvicorn --reload mcp_main:app
