CUDA error #396

Closed waslleysouza closed 6 years ago

waslleysouza commented 6 years ago

Description

The application fails to run and reports an unknown error.

What I Did

I'm using an AWS Deep Learning instance and I followed this tutorial: https://gist.github.com/ageitgey/629d75c1baac34dfa5ca2a1928a7aeaf

I changed these two commands to use CUDA:

mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. -DDLIB_USE_CUDA=1 -DUSE_AVX_INSTRUCTIONS=1; cmake --build .

python3 setup.py install --yes USE_AVX_INSTRUCTIONS --yes DLIB_USE_CUDA

> python /home/ubuntu/projects/face_recognition/facerec_from_webcam_faster.py

Traceback (most recent call last):

Check out #358 which is the same issue - It seems like running the app with sudo worked for some users.

There is the same problem. How do you solve it? Thanks!
