Midway3 not able to install keras after activating cuda

[Qiuyu-Li]

Hi,

I'm having issues with installing python packages on Midway3. This is what I did:

I followed #18 and ran:

sinteractive --account=soci40133 --partition=gpu --mem=100G --time=02:00:00 --gres=gpu:1 --cpus-per-task=4
module load python
module load cuda
source activate pytorch-gpu-1.2-cuda-10.0

Then, I ran pip install keras. And the terminal returned [ERROR 101] Network is unreachable.

I would appreciate it very much if anyone could provide any clues!

Hi @Qiuyu-Li, an easy way to use Keras on RCC would be to use virtual environment that supports Tensorflow. Would you run source activate tf_keras in place of source activate pytorch-gpu-1.2-cuda-10.0 and try to import tensorflow.keras? (You don't have to manually install keras using pip in this case)

[JunsolKim]

Otherwise, you can try to load python module and install packages before starting sinteractive session as follows. (sinteractive session is not connected to internet)

module load python
source activate pytorch-gpu-1.2-cuda-10.0
pip install keras
sinteractive --account...

Dear Junsol, thank you so much! I used the second method and it worked!
