🔒 pip installation is failing when it shouldn't. | Python | Page 1

So, I am trying to install PyTorch for an LLM project I plan to make in the near future.

py -3 -m pip install pytorch says the following: Exception: You tried to install "pytorch". The package named for PyTorch is "torch"
py -3 -m pip install torch says: ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement torch (from versions: none) ERROR: No matching distribution found for torch

I took a look on their website, and found the latest version is 2.5.1, so tried the following command: py -3 -m pip install torch==2.5.1
Same error as ... install torch

I have no idea what is going on anymore, none at all. Any help would be much appreciated. TIA.

Remember to:

Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

What version of Python are you using?

#

And which OS?

idle scarab Dec 19, 2024, 11:54 PM

#

Python 3.13.1```
Windows 11 Pro

#

https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/
Per this when selecting Windows options:

Currently, PyTorch on Windows only supports Python 3.9-3.12;

You may want to install 3.12 and try with that, instead.

!pypi torch

torch v2.5.1

Tensors and Dynamic neural networks in Python with strong GPU acceleration

Released on <t:1730223154:D>.

There is a 3.13 distribution on that page, but only for Linux (edited).

#

Well that is marginally a pain because I only use 3.13.1 for compatibility issues with other projects. Any ideas if I can "bypass" this using WSL at all?

If you build on Linux, sure.

#

Might give that a go then, thanks :)

#

WSL or Docker, either way

idle scarab Dec 20, 2024, 12:00 AM

#

WSL would be the preferred.
