Following this tutorial :

#

https://tensorflow-object-detection-api-tutorial.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html#tf-models-install

#

Previously I ran the command : pip3 install --ignore-installed --upgrade tensorflow==2.5.0

#

Results : https://paste.pythondiscord.com/NQTQ

#

The command I ran right now resulting in this error was :

#

python -c "import tensorflow as tf;print(tf.reduce_sum(tf.random.normal([1000, 1000])))"

whats the python version?

#

whats ur machine architecture?

#

r u using mac?

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:08 AM

#

yes

wait, u r in mac?

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:08 AM

#

Python 3.8.8

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:08 AM

#

fossil holly wait, u r in mac?

yes

#

M1

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 5:10 AM

#

what processor do u have?

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:10 AM

#

The M1 is an ARM processor, not an x86 processor. It integrates more components than an Intel CPU. The Apple M1 also integrates RAM in the same package. It features Rosetta 2 dynamic binary translation that allows it to run x86 software.

#

just searched on google

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 5:10 AM

#

can u run this and give me the output?

file $(which python3)

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:11 AM

#

/opt/homebrew/bin/python3: Mach-O 64-bit executable arm64

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 5:13 AM

#

ok, uninstall tensorflow in ur machine

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:13 AM

#

alright

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 5:13 AM

#

and install it using this

pip3 install tensorflow-macos

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:13 AM

#

fossil holly and install it using this ``` pip3 install tensorflow-macos ```

sure

#

just gimme a sec

#

also as part of the tutorial

#

i had also installed

#

protobuf

#

should i also uninstall that

#

hey

#

gostops

#

pip3 install tensorflow-macos

just want to point out that you guys have mentioned two different executables:

python
python3

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:15 AM

#

vestal charm just want to point out that you guys have mentioned two different executables: 1...

wait

#

so

#

should my command have just used python3 -c ...

vestal charm Jul 19, 2024, 5:16 AM

#

it's up to you to figure out and track which interpreter you're using

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 5:16 AM

#

wait
tensorflow-macos is for py>=3.9

#

amd u r in 3.8

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:16 AM

#

summer quarry Python 3.8.8

.

vestal charm Jul 19, 2024, 5:17 AM

#

when tensorflow says to run "pip" and "python" they don't actually mean that you should type that, they mean that you should run whichever ones of those you intend to do this with

wild scaffold Jul 19, 2024, 5:17 AM

#

python --version
and
python3 --version
Could help you figure out which versions you have

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:17 AM

#

alright

#

so

#

i should upgrade my python

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 5:17 AM

#

i'd say, give it a try

#

and if it didnt work, roll back

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:18 AM

#

(base) xxx@iMac ~ % python --version
Python 3.8.8
(base) xxx@iMac ~ % python3 --version
Python 3.9.13

#

look at this

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 5:18 AM

#

alr

vestal charm Jul 19, 2024, 5:18 AM

#

you should probably not upgrade your python, as your python here probably means a system component that belongs to macos

#

rather, you would install another python that belongs to you

#

you *don't* replace stuff that belongs to the os

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:19 AM

#

vestal charm rather, you would install another python that belongs to you

my python 3 version is above

#

3.9

#

could i install tensorflow using that

#

but how do i say that i want to use the python3 version

#

its just a pip install

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 5:19 AM

#

yep

#

pip3 it is

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:20 AM

#

fossil holly `pip3` it is

i tried with pip3

wild scaffold Jul 19, 2024, 5:20 AM

#

python3 -m pip install
maybe?

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 5:20 AM

#

wild scaffold python3 -m pip install maybe?

or this, yeah

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:20 AM

#

ok lemme just try

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:21 AM

#

wild scaffold python3 -m pip install maybe?

its working

wild scaffold Jul 19, 2024, 5:21 AM

#

nice

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:21 AM

#

wait

#

should i have done

#

python3 -m pip3 install

#

?

#

i just did using pip

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:21 AM

#

wild scaffold nice

thanks!

#

im getting some erros

#

even though they finished

#

#

I have no idea how to deal with that, sorry

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:23 AM

#

np

#

seems like i just have to upgrade or smth

#

idk

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 5:23 AM

#

for now, try creating a venv to install packages

#

and use that venv to run ur tensorflow code

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:23 AM

summer quarry Previously I ran the command : ```pip3 install --ignore-installed --upgrade tens...

wait what

#

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: module 'tensorflow' has no attribute 'reduce_sum'

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 5:23 AM

#

ur global packages seems to be polluted

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:24 AM

#

atleast it doesnt say illegal hardware

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:24 AM

#

fossil holly and use that venv to run ur tensorflow code

i already have a venv on my vscode

#

called

#

tensorflowenv

vestal charm Jul 19, 2024, 5:24 AM

#

make sure you don't have a tensorflow.py

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:25 AM

#

dont have one

#

sait

#

wait

#

so

#

i should do these commands in my venv

vestal charm Jul 19, 2024, 5:25 AM

#

because if you do, then importing tensorflow would import your tensorflow.py rather than the library

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 5:26 AM

#

how can i get into my venv

#

?

#

like in my terminal im just at base

#

and then i should do

#

python3 -m pip install tensorflow-macos?

#

i guess I will just do it in my vscode terminal

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 5:36 AM

#

summer quarry how can i get into my venv

r u in ur venv rn?

#

if not, you can get into ur venv by running venv-name/Scripts/activate.exe

vestal charm Jul 19, 2024, 5:45 AM

#

I imagine the activation file might not have .exe in the name

#

it's generally very difficult to tell you exactly what to run because it's your system so it's all relative to how you've set things up and if you don't get it running yourself it's easier to hand you an environment where everything is already set up

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 6:38 AM

#

hey @fossil holly

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 6:38 AM

#

s

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 6:39 AM

#

i changed a few things

#

so

#

i created a new env

#

using conda

#

I fixed all my polluted libraries and upgraded them

#

but still

#

python3 -c "import tensorflow as tf;print(tf.reduce_sum(tf.random.normal([1000, 1000])))"
zsh: illegal hardware instruction  python3 -c

#

HOW

#

why is installation so hard

#

can you help me

#

pls

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 6:41 AM

#

what happened this time?

#

did u install the macos one?

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 6:41 AM

#

yea

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 6:41 AM

#

in the venv right?

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 6:42 AM

#

pip3 install tensorflow-macos==2.12.0

#

i did this

#

coz the errors mentioned

#

about this

#

should I have done python3 -m pip install tensorflow-macos instead?

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 6:42 AM

#

u dont mention the version explicitly

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 6:42 AM

#

summer quarry should I have done python3 -m pip install tensorflow-macos instead?

yes

#

also, u said u have conda right?

#

do this too

conda install -c apple tensorflow-deps

vestal charm Jul 19, 2024, 6:43 AM

#

surely one or the other, not both

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 6:43 AM

#

ok

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 6:44 AM

#

vestal charm surely one or the other, not both

i already did the first

#

should I still do this one

i created a conda env

somebody in the github said

#

I'd recommend installing tensorflow-deps using conda first and then installing other stuff using pip.

conda install -c apple tensorflow-deps
pip install -r requirements.txt
requirements.txt containing:

tensorflow-macos
tensorflow-metal
jupyter

other packages

...

#

Thanks for all of your help anyways

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 6:46 AM

does it work?

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 6:46 AM

#

I really appreciate it

do u get ur issue resolved?

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 6:47 AM

.

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 6:48 AM

#

or are u running the python -c command?

#

oh ok

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 6:48 AM

#

i just tried the command

#

last time

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 6:48 AM

#

so, no errors so far?

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 6:48 AM

#

nothings running

#

this is the same as last time when it gave that error

#

hopefully it doesnt this time

#

(tensorflow) xxx@iMac ObjectDetection % python3 -c "import tensorflow as tf;print(tf.reduce_sum(tf.random.normal([1000, 1000])))"

#

its just liek this

#

bro its been like this for 2 mins

#

nothings happening

#

what should i do

#

@fossil holly is my program broken?

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 6:57 AM

#

run it in a separate python file

#

and check the output

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 6:57 AM

#

fossil holly run it in a separate python file

u mean new terminal

#

will try

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 6:58 AM

#

i think tasks like this in tf should take a lot of time depending on the machine

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 6:59 AM

#

hm

#

bro

#

honestly

#

imma leave it

#

its just a verification

#

and i can do it later

#

but how do i stop it from running

#

coz

#

when i created a new terminal

#

my

#

tensorflow conda venv

#

was gona

#

gone

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 7:00 AM

#

what?

#

no way

#

do u mena like u lost the venv folder or smth?

#

or u just got out of the venv session?

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 7:01 AM

#

(tensorflowenv) (base) xxx@iMac ObjectDetection % deactivate
(base) xxx@iMac ObjectDetection %

#

this was the previous venv i had

#

i have no tensorflow folder

#

Screenshot_2024-07-19_at_12.32.16_PM.png

#

this is all that is there

#

when i used conda

#

idk if a new folder was even created to begin with

#

conda activate tensorflow

#

just have to do this command to reactivate it

#

but no folder is present

#

is that a problem @fossil holly ?

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 7:04 AM

#

the env folder is still there

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 7:04 AM

#

fossil holly the env folder is still there

where

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 7:04 AM

#

so, ig no problem for the venv

#

the 3rd one

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 7:04 AM

#

the "tensorflowenv" folder is a venv i created through python

#

the name of my conda env is "tensorflow"

#

and there is no folder fo it

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 7:05 AM

#

summer quarry the "tensorflowenv" folder is a venv i created through python

this is a completely different one

fossil holly Jul 19, 2024, 7:15 AM

#

summer quarry the name of my conda env is "tensorflow"

thats the name of the module

#

doing so will make python to import that folder instead

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 7:20 AM

#

https://tensorflow-object-detection-api-tutorial.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html#tf-models-install

#

bro look at the steps this tutorial gives

#

Screenshot_2024-07-19_at_12.51.28_PM.png

#

which one should I download @fossil holly

vestal charm Jul 19, 2024, 7:30 AM

#

does your venv actually use the names pip3 and python3? I suspect they define pip and python in the activated environment, so are you even using the correct executables?

#

you've got at least three different environments.. four? you've got conda in there too. and I can't help but wonder if you're blindly copying/guessing instead of using *the. correct. one*

vestal charm Jul 19, 2024, 7:32 AM

#

summer quarry ``` python3 -c "import tensorflow as tf;print(tf.reduce_sum(tf.random.normal([10...

and here, did you simply give up on finding out whether this was installed? instead of running ALL of that at once, try importing it and seeing if the stuff is there or not

#

and if you're struggling with using a venv, install a trivial package instead to ensure that you're using the venv correctly before moving on to something far more complicated such as tensorflow (which in turn is probably not made easier by doing it on mac and on top of that on arm64)

#

if you can remote into something that has tensorflow installed for you already, that'd save you a whole bunch of trouble

#

having it locally is great and all but imo it's up to you to figure out your environment

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 7:37 AM

#

hey

#

sorry just came onine

vestal charm Jul 19, 2024, 7:37 AM

what do u mean by using the names

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 7:39 AM

#

vestal charm pretty sure?

is there any other way to confirm

#

if i did the install

vestal charm Jul 19, 2024, 7:39 AM

#

well you could import it and look at it

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 7:39 AM

#

and check if it says requirement already satisfied?

vestal charm Jul 19, 2024, 7:39 AM

thanks for the advice

vestal charm Jul 19, 2024, 7:43 AM

#

summer quarry what do u mean by using the names

when you type python in zsh that's going to resolve into a file path to an executable, the name python can refer to anything

#

so when you type such a name, you need to ensure that's going to resolve to the thing you meant to run, and not something else

#

you could use the file path yourself, you could read the activation script for the venv to see what it does, or indeed you could run it and query it for who it is

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 7:45 AM

#

hey

#

while

#

i have you here

#

i was simultaneously installing protobuf

vestal charm Jul 19, 2024, 7:45 AM

#

it's not that it's hard, it's that things don't snap into place. the only one making things work or make sense is you

#

so everything needs to be deliberate from your end

summer quarry Jul 19, 2024, 7:46 AM

#

zsh: killed     protoc object_detection/protos/*.proto --python_out=.

vestal charm Jul 19, 2024, 7:48 AM

#

and now I'm wondering if you're trying to run x86 executables again

#

what if you run your code here instead? https://colab.research.google.com/
looks like you can upload your files there. and tensorflow seems available. no clue what sort of performance is backing that though.
