Unable to install PyTorch in Raspberry pi 4
December 5, 2023, 17:15
Hello,
I am doing an image processing project using raspberry pi 4. I've saved the weights of the model in a pth file and passed it onto a raspberry pi with a usb stick. In order to load the model in raspberry pi so that I can use the camera I need to import PyTorch to load the model weights. The current version of python I'm using is 3.11 and every time I try to install torch it says "package python3-torch has no installation candidate".
Any help on this would be appreciated!
why can't you just use pip?
pip install python3-torch
maybe add a sudo at the beginning if you need it
Use the website https://pypi.org/ and search for the package, if it isnt in the search result you can't install it as there is no such library!
pytorch is a Library
I use it all the time for ML
you may need to use some variation of python3-torch for it to work but it's definitely useable
Yeah it's definitely a library
We've been downloading other libraries through
Sudo apt (get) install python3-library
It seems like it's not working for torch
try pip install
It's the first arrow
If you get the message "package python3-torch has no installation candidate" then the package name is either misspelled or not existent
you either need to use a venv or add --break-system-packges or something similar to the end
use it in a python venv to avoid breaking system files. Basically not installing it globally
lemme get you a link
also going to find out if the pytorch libary can run a pi
pip3 install torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu118
try that
if not try this
python -m venv nameofvenv
source nameofvenv/bin/activate
first one creates it second one activates it
gl
Thanks for all the suggestions! I did try to use venv and even if I did pip install in those I was still getting an error. The default python is python3.11.8 so I might download python3.9.18 and see if that works
i couldnt find any info on the arm chip being able to run pytorch
ill look harder
so it can
Thank you!! <@120274865973493761>
Resolved: You can't work with PyTorch on Raspberry pi 4 if you install the 32-bit OS. You need to have the 64-bit
Thanks for sharing this Info 👍🏻
