I am trying to run ./TTS/bin/train_tacotron.py with GPU in Powershell.
I followed these instructions, which got me pretty far: the config is read, the model restored, but as training is about to start, I get the message:
UserWarning: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti with CUDA capability sm_86 is not compatible with the current PyTorch installation. The current PyTorch install supports CUDA capabilities sm_37 sm_50 sm_60 sm_61 sm_70 sm_75 compute_37.
If you want to use the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti GPU with PyTorch, please check the instructions at https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/
The instructions specified don't really help. I tried installing the most recent stable version of PyTorch, as well as trying 1.7.1 (as opposed to 1.8.0 as recommended in the instructions I linked), but I got the same message.
How can I get this to run on my GPU?
Side note: I was successfully able to run training on my GPU in WSL, but it froze after a few hundred epochs, so I wanted to try Powershell to see if it made a difference.
In order to work properly with your current CUDA version, you need to specify the version 11.3 to cudatoolkit. Execute the following commands:
conda uninstall cudatoolkit
conda install cudatoolkit=11.3 -c pytorch
I am trying to use my local GPU to train an EfficientDetD0 model. I already have a good pipeline (that works on Google Colab for example), I modified it a bit to use it locally, but one problem happens every time I launch the training.
I use conda to install tensorflow-gpu with cuda and cudnn but it makes TensorFlow v2.4.1 environments and when I launch the training the Object Detection API automatically install TensorFlow V2.5.0. So my env is not using the gpu for the training because cuda and cudnn are waiting for TensorFlow to be v2.4.1 and not v2.5.0.
Is there a way to get the Object Detection API in v2.4.1 and not v2.5.0 ?
I tried many things but it doesn't work (training is failing or going for CPU training).
Here is the code that install dependencies and overwrite TensorFlow version to TensorFlow v2.5.0:
os.system("cp object_detection/packages/tf2/setup.py .")
os.system("python -m pip install .")
SYSTEM:
gpu : Nvidia RTX 3070
os : Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
tensorflow: 2.4.1
P.S.: I go with conda install -c conda-forge tensorflow-gpu for installing TensorFlow, cuda and cudnn in my training env because manually there was a dependency problem, so I took the easy way.
EDIT : solution found explained in comments.
Follow these steps to install specific version of tensorflow gpu
1. Set Up Anaconda Environments
conda create -n tf_gpu cudatoolkit=11.0
2. Activate the new Environment
source activate tf_gpu
3. Install tensorflow-gpu 2.4.1
pip install tensorflow==2.4.1
Try to run object_detection without "installing" it. Dont run setup.py. Just setup the neccesery paths and packages manually.
Or edit the setup.py to skip installing the specific verison of TF. I quess that this version is a requirement of some of the packages installed in setup.py.
I use the object_detection without running the setup.py or doing any "installation" without any problems.
I have installed both tensorflow 2.2.0 and tensorflow 1.15.0(by pip install tensorflow-gpu==1.15.0). The tensorflow 2 is installed in the base environment of Anaconda 3, while the tensorflow 1 is installed in a separate environment.
The tensorflow 2.2.0 can recognize gpu based on a simple test:
if tf.test.gpu_device_name():
print('Default GPU Device: {}'.format(tf.test.gpu_device_name()))
//output: Default GPU Device: /device:GPU:0
But the tensorflow 1.15.0 can not detect gpu.
For your information, my system environment is python + cuda 10.1 + vs 2015.
The tensosflow versions 1.15.0 to 1.15.3 (the latest version) are all compiled against Cuda 10.0. Downgrading the cuda 10.1 to cuda 10.0 solved the problem.
Also be aware of the python version. It is recommended to install the tensorflow .whl file (as listed at https://nero-mirror.stanford.edu/pypi/simple/tensorflow-gpu/) for the specific python version. As for installation, see How do I install a Python package with a .whl file?
Tensorflow 1.15 expects cuda 10.0 , but I managed to make it work with cuda 10.1 by installing the following packages with Anaconda: cudatoolkit (10.0) and cudnn (7.6.5). So, after running
conda install cudatoolkit=10.0
conda install cudnn=7.6.5
tensorflow 1.15 was able to find and use GPU (which is using cuda 10.1).
PS: I understand your environment is Windows based, but this question pops on Google for the same problem happening on Linux (where I tested this solution). Might be useful also on Windows.
It might have to do with the version compatibility of TF, Cuda and CuDNN. This post has it discussed thoroughly.
Have you tried installing Anaconda? it downloads all the requirements and make it easy for you with just a few clicks.
Note : this question was initially asked on github, but it was asked to be here instead
I'm having trouble running tensorflow on gpu, and it does not seems to be the usual cuda's configuration problem, because everything seems to indicate cuda is properly setup.
The main symptom: when running tensorflow, my gpu is not detected (the code being run, and its output).
What differs from usual issues is that cuda seems properly installed and running ./deviceQuery from cuda samples is successful (output).
I have two graphical cards:
an old GTX 650 used for my monitors (I don't want to use that one with tensorflow)
a GTX 1060 that I want to dedicate to tensorflow
I use:
tensorflow-1.0.0
cuda-8.0 (ls -l /usr/local/cuda/lib64/libcud*)
cudnn-5.1.10
python-2.7.12
nvidia-drivers-375.26 (this was installed by cuda and replaced my distro driver package)
I've tried:
adding /usr/local/cuda/bin/ to $PATH
forcing gpu placement in tensorflow script using with tf.device('/gpu:1'): (and with tf.device('/gpu:0'): when it failed, for good measure)
whitelisting the gpu I wanted to use with CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES, in case the presence of my old unsupported card did cause problems
running the script with sudo (because why not)
Here are the outputs of nvidia-smi and nvidia-debugdump -l, in case it's useful.
At this point, I feel like I have followed all the breadcrumbs and have no idea what I could try else. I'm not even sure if I'm contemplating a bug or a configuration problem. Any advice about how to debug this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Update: with the help of Yaroslav on github, I gathered more debugging info by raising log level, but it doesn't seem to say much about the device selection : https://gist.github.com/oelmekki/760a37ca50bf58d4f03f46d104b798bb
Update 2: Using theano detects gpu correctly, but interestingly it complains about cuDNN being too recent, then fallback to cpu (code ran, output). Maybe that could be the problem with tensorflow as well?
From the log output, it looks like you are running the CPU version of TensorFlow (PyPI: tensorflow), and not the GPU version (PyPI: tensorflow-gpu). Running the GPU version would either log information about the CUDA libraries, or an error if it failed to load them or open the driver.
If you run the following commands, you should be able to use the GPU in subsequent runs:
$ pip uninstall tensorflow
$ pip install tensorflow-gpu
None of the other answers here worked for me. After a bit of tinkering I found that this fixed my issues when dealing with Tensorflow built from binary:
Step 0: Uninstall protobuf
pip uninstall protobuf
Step 1: Uninstall tensorflow
pip uninstall tensorflow
pip uninstall tensorflow-gpu
Step 2: Force reinstall Tensorflow with GPU support
pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall tensorflow-gpu
Step 3: If you haven't already, set CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES
So for me with 2 GPUs it would be
export CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1
In my case:
pip3 uninstall tensorflow
is not enough. Because when reinstall with:
pip3 install tensorflow-gpu
It is still reinstall tensorflow with cpu not gpu.
So, before install tensorflow-gpu, I tried to remove all related tensor folders in site-packages uninstall protobuf, and it works!
For conclusion:
pip3 uninstall tensorflow
Remove all tensor folders in ~\Python35\Lib\site-packages
pip3 uninstall protobuf
pip3 install tensorflow-gpu
Might seem dumb but a sudo reboot has fixed the exact same problem for me and a couple others.
The answer that saved my day came from Mark Sonn. Simply add this to .bashrc and
source ~/.bashrc if you are on Linux:
export CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1
Previously I had to use this workaround to get tensorflow recognize my GPU:
import tensorflow as tf
gpus = tf.config.experimental.list_physical_devices(device_type="GPU")
tf.config.experimental.set_visible_devices(devices=gpus[0], device_type="GPU")
tf.config.experimental.set_memory_growth(device=gpus[0], enable=True)
Even though the code still worked, adding these lines every time is clearly not something I would want.
My version of tensorflow was built from source according to the documentation to get v2.3 support CUDA 10.2 and cudnn 7.6.5.
If anyone having trouble with that, I suggest doing a quick skim over the docs. Took 1.5 hours to build with bazel. Make sure you have gcc7 and bazel installed.
This error may be caused by your GPU's compute capability, CUDA officially supports GPU's compute capability within 3.5 ~ 5.0, you can check here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CUDA
In my case, the error was like this:
Ignoring visible gpu device (device: 0, name: GeForce GT 640M, pci bus id: 0000:01:00.0, compute capability: 3.0) with Cuda compute capability 3.0. The minimum required Cuda capability is 3.5.
For now we can only compile from source code on Linux (or mac OS) to break the '3.5~5.0' limit.
There are various system incompatible problems.
The requirement for libraries can vary from the version of TensorFlow.
During using python in interactive mode a lot of useful information is printing into stderr. What I suggest for TensorFlow with version 2.0 or more to call:
python3.8 -c "import tensorflow as tf; print('tf version:', tf.version); tf.config.list_physical_devices()"
After this command, you will observe missing libraries (or a version of it) for work with GPU in addition to requirements:
https://www.tensorflow.org/install/gpu#software_requirements
https://www.tensorflow.org/install/gpu#hardware_requirements
p.s. CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES should not have a real connection with TensorFlow, or it's more general - it's a way to customize available GPUs for all launched processes.
For anaconda users. I installed tensorflow-gpu via GUI using Anaconda Navigator and configured NVIDIA GPU as in tensorflow guide but tensorflow couldn't find the GPU anyway. Then I uninstalled tensorflow, always via GUI (see here) and reinstalled it via command line in an anaconda prompt issuing:
conda install -c anaconda tensorflow-gpu
and then tensorflow could find the GPU correctly.
I am using tensorflow currently on a virtualbox Linux VM, on a native windows pc.
This is slow.
I've read what I could find about this (e.g.: How to install TensorFlow on Windows?)
However, they suggest using a Virtual Machine, which is maybe 10 times slower compared to a native OS.
Is there a way to use Tensorflow just in windows directly?
Yes. We recently announced TensorFlow 0.12, which is the first version that comes with Windows support and pre-built packages for Windows. It supports Python 3.5 and GPU acceleration with GPUs that support CUDA 8.0. To install the Python package on Windows you can use pip:
C:\> pip install tensorflow
To install the GPU-acclerated version there is a different package:
C:\> pip install tensorflow-gpu
