I used the auto installer for windows 10 and it says can't find models.yaml

#

I've tried reinstalling multiple times

#

It also says it can't find GFPGAN but i said yes to downloading

#

Also it couldn't find codeformer either

#

I had to move codeformer from a random folder it created in my c:/system32

#

invoke folder is d:/

Can you check your .invokeai file in your users folder, and see if it's correctly been updated with the --root_dir argument to direct it to the folder w/ your models?

That's a weird one.

#

Wait - You're in a text editor, aye?

#

Did you run the .sh file, or just open it in a text editor?

covert barn Nov 28, 2022, 2:03 AM

#

oh wait yeah

covert barn Nov 28, 2022, 2:04 AM

#

wait dumb q

#

how do i run it on mac

river pulsar Nov 28, 2022, 2:04 AM

#

from the terminal

#

./invoke.sh should run it

covert barn Nov 28, 2022, 2:04 AM

#

aight

river pulsar Nov 28, 2022, 2:04 AM

#

(depending on where you stored it, you might need to "cd" there first)

covert barn Nov 28, 2022, 2:05 AM

#

the file name is install.sh

#

so what would the full command be

#

its not in the install instructions

#

?

river pulsar Nov 28, 2022, 2:11 AM

#

if you run it from the terminal, you would just type in the name.

covert barn Nov 28, 2022, 2:27 AM

#

install.sh is inside invok.sh

#

which should i run

river pulsar Nov 28, 2022, 2:28 AM

#

install, first.

#

then invoke after installed.

covert barn Nov 28, 2022, 2:30 AM

#

i put in "./install.sh" and it said no such file or directory

river pulsar Nov 28, 2022, 2:31 AM

#

you navigated to the folder where it's located?

covert barn Nov 28, 2022, 2:32 AM

#

im pretty experienced with SD, but kinda a noob with the terminal

#

how do i do that

river pulsar Nov 28, 2022, 2:32 AM

#

all good - macs are a pain in not letting this run w/ one click

#

although there's someone in discord who posted a command that does

#

cd [directory path here]

#

so, for example cd Users/MyUser/InvokeDownload, if that was the path to it

covert barn Nov 28, 2022, 2:34 AM

#

that didnt work, i dont know how paths work

#

sry ik this is a pain

river pulsar Nov 28, 2022, 2:35 AM

#

haha like i said, no problem

#

when you access the file using the file explorer

#

what is the set of folders it's in

#

(you should be able to get the full file path at the top, or by looking at the file's properties or something)

#

i dont have my mac in front of me or I'd be helping out

covert barn Nov 28, 2022, 2:37 AM

#

its inside invoke ai

#

though for some reason there is an invokeai2 copy folder but that was prob an accidental double click on the download

#

the folder is "invokAI"

#

invokeAI

river pulsar Nov 28, 2022, 2:38 AM

#

Yep - What's the folder that InvokeAI is in

#

and then the folder that one is in

#

etc.

#

all the way until "there's no more folders"

#

(the "path" is basically the breadcrumbs that tell us exactly where the file is - something like /firstfolder/secondfolder/lastfolder)

covert barn Nov 28, 2022, 2:45 AM

#

So would with the path and install commands be?

#

*would not with

#

Sry more typos

#

*So what would the path and install commands be?

river pulsar Nov 28, 2022, 2:47 AM

#

It's your computer, this one you'll have to tell me 🙂

#

the cd command is navigating to a specific folder on your computer

#

so you need to share where that file is stored (not just one folder, but the full path) in order for me to help with that

Gtg, I’ll lyk if I get it working

#

Thx so much

covert barn Nov 29, 2022, 5:03 PM

#

ok so i looked at the install readme

#

it says all i have to do it put "./install.sh" into the terminal to run the install on my mac

#

and i just get "zsh: no such file or directory: ./install.sh"

river pulsar Nov 29, 2022, 5:12 PM

#

you need to CD to the path where the file is stored.

covert barn Nov 29, 2022, 5:25 PM

#

i did "cd[username/Applications/invokeAI/install.sh]

#

"

#

got no matches found

#

i think my path formatting was wrong but idk how

river pulsar Nov 29, 2022, 5:29 PM

#

Remove the brackets and add a space after cd

covert barn Nov 29, 2022, 5:54 PM

#

weird is did that and got "no file or directory"

river pulsar Nov 29, 2022, 6:16 PM

#

i'm assuming you're not actually typing in username

#

but if you are... that's likely a problem

#

(unless your local PC user is indeed username)

covert barn i did "cd[username/Applications/invokeAI/install.sh]

Please read through this article on how to use terminal https://www.macworld.com/article/221277/command-line-navigating-files-folders-mac-terminal.html

It’s not too long. Try out the things it suggests - you won’t hurt anything. Then it we hopefully be clearer what you are missing.

Tip: when typing a path, you can press Tab to autocomplete or see the valid next parts of the path.

Thank you! My apologies!

covert barn Dec 17, 2022, 7:50 PM

#

ok so im back and i made some progress! i read that terminal article and figured out how to naviget to directories in the terminal

#

ive navigated to my downloads forlder where i have hte installer, but the install guide does not make it clear how to run install.sh

#

when i click on it it only comes up as a text file, so i think i need to run the file from terminal

river pulsar Dec 17, 2022, 8:04 PM

#

try sh ./install.sh in the terminal

#

OR drop the install.sh into your terminal window

covert barn Dec 17, 2022, 8:04 PM

#

ok i fugured out how to run it and it finished

river pulsar Dec 17, 2022, 8:04 PM

#

good 🙂

covert barn Dec 17, 2022, 8:05 PM

#

but it gave a "no such file or directory" when it got to the config section

#

it looks like it was trying to do something with python, which should work bc it confirmed i have compatible python

#

any ideas?

river pulsar Dec 18, 2022, 2:19 AM

#

Hm... No such file or directory on which step specifically?

covert barn Dec 18, 2022, 3:50 AM

#

The config step

river pulsar Dec 18, 2022, 1:11 PM

#

Is it creating the file after it says that?

covert barn Dec 18, 2022, 8:01 PM

*** Confguring InvokeAI ***

discord bolded it because it replaced my name with asteriscs
