No module named 'nets'

[TechGenius28]

I am experiencing an issue when running the 'train.py' command.

This error keeps reoccurring:

File "train.py", line 52, in from object_detection.builders import model_builder File "C:\Users\owner\Anaconda3\envs\tensorflow1\lib\site-packages\object_detection-0.1-py3.6.egg\object_detection\builders\model_builder.py", line 30, in from object_detection.models import faster_rcnn_inception_resnet_v2_feature_extractor as frcnn_inc_res File "C:\Users\owner\Anaconda3\envs\tensorflow1\lib\site-packages\object_detection-0.1-py3.6.egg\object_detection\models\faster_rcnn_inception_resnet_v2_feature_extractor.py", line 28, in from nets import inception_resnet_v2 ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'nets'

Please could somebody help me out. Thanks

[drfikrah]

i have same problem too. any solution?

[vdsprakash]

once keep the defintion of the model_builder.py and faster_rcnn_inception_resnet_v2_feature_extractor.py

I can solve your problem, once share me your project directory list.

[venkateshbabusekar]

run this command set PYTHONPATH=C:\tensorflow1\models set PYTHONPATH=C:\tensorflow1\models\research set PYTHONPATH=C:\tensorflow1\models\research\slim

run the following commands from the C:\tensorflow1\models\research directory:

C:\tensorflow1\models\research> python setup.py build C:\tensorflow1\models\research> python setup.py install

I was having the same error and this solved my problem https://github.com/tensorflow/models/issues/1842#issuecomment-377925135

[vdsprakash]

keep the nets folder in the object detection folder and change your importing code to

from object_dectection.nets import (your_required_python file or class/function in python file)

[Akshaysharma29]

keep the nets folder in the object detection folder nets folder is present in research/slim directory or From tensorflow/models/research/ run this command on terminal export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:pwd:pwd/slim

[aaron-jencks]

in the C:\tensorflow1\models\research\slim directory run python setup.py build python setup.py install

models/research/slim HAS ITS OWN setup.py!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[AlanNaoto]

in the C:\tensorflow1\models\research\slim directory run python setup.py build python setup.py install

models/research/slim HAS ITS OWN setup.py!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Worked perfectly! Thanks a lot.

That's because your train.py script is not finding the scripts from the nets folder. You should do as iggy12345 said and install those packages to the python you are using.

[rejj1234]

Thank you very much.

IT WORKS FLAWLESSLY!!!!! THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH

[MohammadDabbas]

Hi guys I'm having a similar error when I'm trying to run the training using this command: python train.py --logtostderr --train_dir=training/ --pipeline_config_path=training/ssd_mobilenet_v1_coco.config

this is the error that I'm having: Traceback (most recent call last): File "train.py", line 51, in <module> from object_detection.builders import model_builder File "C:\tensorflow1\models\research\object_detection\builders\model_builder.py", line 35, in <module> from object_detection.models import faster_rcnn_inception_resnet_v2_feature_extractor as frcnn_inc_res File "C:\tensorflow1\models\research\object_detection\models\faster_rcnn_inception_resnet_v2_feature_extractor.py", line 28, in <module> from nets import inception_resnet_v2 ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'nets'

note: the setup.py file is already exist in the slim folder directory plz guys help me out

[Itachi-Uchia]

@MohammadDabbas did you get the solution??? Bcz im getting the same scenario

[Itachi-Uchia]

in the C:\tensorflow1\models\research\slim directory run python setup.py build python setup.py install models/research/slim HAS ITS OWN setup.py!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IT WORKS FLAWLESSLY!!!!! THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH

Brother I have the setup file but the 'install' wont run having the error as

"could not create 'build':Cannot create a file when that file already exits"

If you know the solution then plz help

[SiddharthSingi]

Solution: @kamal0803 If you open python on your shell, run import sys and then print(sys.path) you will see a list of all the PYTHONPATH items in a list. To remove this error, this list must include a path to the slims, models and research directory. You can try set PYTHONPATH=path_name_to_directory. However if that does not work then you can also consider manually adding the pathname by going on My PC --> Properties -->Advanced System Settings --> Environment Variables and then add a new variable in System Variables.

This worked for me, also remember that even after you have added the pathnames, you will need to restart the shell or sometimes even the PC for it to reflect of sys.path

Also, I am using a CPU version of tensorflow.

[SiddharthSingi]

I am also using a CPU version, but that should not be an issue, where have you saved the environment variable, mine is saved like this:

And also on your cmd, run python then import sys then print(sys.path). You may have added your paths to PATH variable but you need to add it to PYTHONPATH variable in the environment variables like in the image above

Sir,

Its still not working. Please help. I have sent the screenshots

Can it be a possibility that the files might been corrupt because of so many hit and trials.??

[SiddharthSingi]

Can you check in your folders if you have the nets folder inside slim directory?

[kamal0803]

Yes sir

[kamal0803]

Can you check in your folders if you have the nets folder inside slim directory?

Sir,the error I got, I checked it on github..The link to its solution is

https://github.com/tensorflow/models/issues/5138

But i am not able to find a solution Please help.

[lintujizoarakal777]

run this command set PYTHONPATH=C:\tensorflow1\models set PYTHONPATH=C:\tensorflow1\models\research set PYTHONPATH=C:\tensorflow1\models\research\slim

run the following commands from the C:\tensorflow1\models\research directory:

C:\tensorflow1\models\research> python setup.py build C:\tensorflow1\models\research> python setup.py install

Super bro...... Thank you soooooo much

[rejj1234]

you should do the setpython path so that the error will disappear.

@tamasino52 There might be a possibility that the files must have got corrupt. In this case, do everything from scratch and u will get the desired result. It happened the same with me.

[aliakgoz]

I'm already do that. But " No module named 'nets' " message still occurs

for colab you can try this import os os.environ['PYTHONPATH']=os.environ['PYTHONPATH']+':/content/models/research/slim'

[ramapsam]

set PYTHONPATH=C:\tensorflow1\models\research\slim

i'm already do like this but this appear

this = _pywrap_tensorflow_internal.new_CheckpointReader(filename) tensorflow.python.framework.errors_impl.InvalidArgumentError: Unsuccessful TensorSliceReader constructor: Failed to get matching files on C:/tensorflow1/models/research/object_detection/faster_rcnn_inception_v2_coco_2018_01_28/model.ckpt: Not found: FindFirstFile failed for: C:/tensorflow1/models/research/object_detection/faster_rcnn_inception_v2_coco_2018_01_28 : The system cannot find the path specified. ; No such process

anny solution?

Are you sure from the path (C:\tensorflow1\models\research\slim)?

[ramapsam]

set PYTHONPATH=C:\tensorflow1\models\research\slim

yes exactly like this run this command set PYTHONPATH=C:\tensorflow1\models set PYTHONPATH=C:\tensorflow1\models\research set PYTHONPATH=C:\tensorflow1\models\research\slim

run the following commands from the C:\tensorflow1\models\research directory:

C:\tensorflow1\models\research> python setup.py build C:\tensorflow1\models\research> python setup.py install

after that i'm running this command python legacy/train.py --logtostderr --train_dir=training/ --pipeline_config_path=training/faster_rcnn_inception_v2_pets.config and error appear

[Mekatroniktr]

run this command

set PYTHONPATH=C:\tensorflow1\models set PYTHONPATH=C:\tensorflow1\models\research set PYTHONPATH=C:\tensorflow1\models\research\slim !!! also> set PYTHONPATH=C:\tensorflow1\models\research\slim\net

run the following commands from the C:\tensorflow1\models\research directory:

C:\tensorflow1\models\research> python setup.py build C:\tensorflow1\models\research> python setup.py install

[abumubaarak]

The mistake I made was using setup.py instead of python setup.py

[Rams901]

For those who had such an error: "could not create 'build':Cannot create a file when that file already exits" when trying to build the setup.py in the slim folder. You need to delete a file called 'BUILD" in the slim folder. and it will work.

[olarapio]

I solved this error by copying nets and deployment directories to the directory where train.py is

[chiragpandav]

if you are using Jupyter Notebook and using Linux sys

download tensorflow-models

and then write this in your Notebook

sys.path.append("/home/Roy/Downloads/models-master/research/slim/")

I solved my problem with this

hope it helps
