When does this happen?
IF When using llama_index's structured output with a Pydantic model, the LLM may return a raw string instead of a valid Pydantic instance, causing an AttributeError on model_dump_json().
How others solved it
THEN Wrap the structured LLM chat call in a retry loop that catches AttributeError or pydantic.ValidationError. On failure, log the original error message and retry up to a maximum number of attempts (e.g., 3). Use a short delay between retries to avoid rate limits.
from pydantic import ValidationError
from llama_index.core.llms import LLM
max_retries = 3
for attempt in range(max_retries):
try:
response = sllm.chat([system_prompt, user_prompt])
break
except (AttributeError, ValidationError) as e:
print(f"Attempt {attempt+1} failed: {e}")
if attempt == max_retries - 1:
