When does this happen?

IF With ChromaDB 0.4+, the old `persist_directory` initialization method may still work but the recommended pattern is to use an explicit client.

How others solved it

THEN Create a `chromadb.PersistentClient` with the desired path, then pass it to LangChain's Chroma constructor using the `client` parameter. Do not use `persist_directory` or the old `chroma_db_impl` argument. Note that `.persist()` is deprecated; persistence is automatic.

import chromadb
from langchain.vectorstores import Chroma

client = chromadb.PersistentClient(path='./db')
vector_db = Chroma(
    client=client,
    collection_name='my_collection',
    embedding_function=embeddings
)
