Illegal instruction (core dumped)

Error: Illegal instruction (core dumped) Environment: Ubuntu 22.04 (VirtualBox, Windows Host) Python 3.10.12 EasyOCR 1.7.1 Virtual Env using Poetry

This worked about a week ago and suddenly the same script giving this error without installing any other dependencies.

I tested this again in a new Ubuntu 22.04 virtual box instance and now issue is still there permanently.

I have same issue on CPU, also I try use their dockerfile, still same error https://github.com/JaidedAI/EasyOCR/blob/master/Dockerfile But it works on GPU

[symmetrically]

I am also facing the same problem with easyocr 1.7.1:

easyocr -l en -f test.jpg --gpu=False
Neither CUDA nor MPS are available - defaulting to CPU. Note: This module is much faster with a GPU.
[W NNPACK.cpp:64] Could not initialize NNPACK! Reason: Unsupported hardware.

Same issue, who knows how to solve it?

Have you ever tried downgrading torch? I got the same message and EasyOCR didn't work, but after downgrading the torch it works fine, even though the message still appear.

The version I'm using now:

• python:3.8-slim
• pip install torch==1.8.1 torchvision==0.9.1 --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/lts/1.8/cpu
