Failed to install apex

[fizzking]

I have tried to install apex as the readme requested， but have failed. What should I do？

Thanks for reporting it. This error seems to be related to the connections set up by your git. If your git can not work correctly, you may want to try to replace the git clone operation by downloading the whole repo manually. Then follow the instructions in the official README:

1. Download repo "apex" from https://github.com/NVIDIA/apex and unzip it to folder "apex".
2. Run

   cd apex
   pip install -v --disable-pip-version-check --no-cache-dir --global-option="--cpp_ext" --global-option="--cuda_ext" ./

@fizzking feel free to let us know if it does not work.

I have tried to download apex into folder according to what you said, but still cannot install apex

You may try the python-only installation:

pip install -v --disable-pip-version-check --no-cache-dir ./

Thanks！ I successfully installed apex

Great. Just let us know if you still face any issue in train the model! I will later submit a PR to revise our README to mention python-only installation of apex.

Meanwhile, let me close this first. @fizzking feel free to reopen / create new issues.
