Unable to install fbprophet in anaconda #892

Closed amruutharao closed 5 years ago

amruutharao commented 5 years ago

I have installed the package fbprophet using the following command conda install -c conda-forge fbprophet . I have checked the list of packages installed and it shows that fbprophet is successfully installed.

In my jupyter notebook, when i am trying to import prophet i get an error as follow. "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'fbprophet'" .

I tried using pip install fbprophet but it does not work because of issues in pystan. If someone knows how to install fbprophet command and import prophet , please reply .

I use the following configuration. Python : 2.7.15 anaconda2

I'm guessing that the notebook is not using the Anaconda python (but perhaps is using system python). You can check in the notebook what python is being used:

import sys
print(sys.executable)

amruutharao commented 5 years ago

I have checked the path it is pointing to using above command and i could understand that the path it is pointing to is C:\Users****\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\python.exe.

Not sure if i need to re configure my jupyter notebook to point to conda environment since i use tabpy server and it was affected due to an unstable package ( tornado ).

bletham commented 5 years ago

I don't actually use conda myself and so cannot be of much help in figuring out issues related to conda environments.

ivonnics commented 5 years ago

I would recommend @amruutharao to reinstall Anaconda and then, install fbprophet in a separate environment: https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/tasks/manage-environments.html

amruutharao commented 5 years ago

I have re installed the anaconda environment .

  1. I tried to install it with pip install fbprophet. but i get the error that
    " No module named 'numpy.distutils._msvccompiler' in numpy.distutils; trying from distutils building 'pystan._api' extension"

I am not sure why this is not stable and which package has to be upgraded or downgraded for this. Is there any earlier version for fbprophet which is stable ?

  1. I also tried using conda install -c conda-forge fbprophet . It shows " solving the environment " ... forever. I am having more issues than before and am not sure why
bletham commented 5 years ago

You definitely want to use conda forge to install it in conda. Maybe try

conda update conda

first?

amruutharao commented 5 years ago

I have tried that i ran the command "conda install -c conda-forge fbprophet"

UnsatisfiableError: The following specifications were found to be in conflict:

bletham commented 5 years ago

what does the conda info show as the dependencies for fbprophet? nothing listed there seems like it should be an issue.

https://ipython.readthedocs.io/en/stable/install/kernel_install.html#kernels-for-different-environments

Follow instructions here. You need to follow the section where it says:

'Using virtualenv or conda envs, you can make your IPython kernel in one env available to Jupyter in a different env. To do so, run ipykernel install from the kernel’s env, with –prefix pointing to the Jupyter env:'

I've had the same problem. But it works after I follow this steps:

On Prompt install Ephem: conda install -c anaconda ephem

Install Pystan: conda install -c conda-forge pystan

Finally install Fbprophet conda install -c conda-forge fbprophet

jjjacques commented 5 years ago

Thank You @luanaformiga running this command also install ephem and psystan $conda install -c conda-forge fbprophet

It works like a charm. You saved me!

JamieL22 commented 4 years ago

Tried again with your lead bhaskoro-muthohar. Using the Packages (PyPi) Visual Studio 2017, Tools | Python Tools | Python environment.
Version 3.6 from VS has all three commands:

Install ephem 3.7.7.1 (succeeds) Installl pystan 2.19.1.1 (succeeds) install fbprophet 0.6 failed

I see there is also a version covid-19-prophet

This too fails.

But if switching to another project, same version (3.6), same command succeeds.

This worked great for me! Just be aware that it won't work with pyhon 3.9 <=. I had to downgrade to python 3.7.

I am using streamlit where I am using fbprophet. After doing all this steps too I am seeing ModuleNotFoundError

iftesha1 commented 1 year ago

  1. Create a virtual environment using
    conda create --name myenv

  2. Activate the environment using conda activate myenv

  3. Install ephem using conda install -c anaconda ephem

  4. Install pystan using conda install -c conda-forge pystan

  5. Install the fbrprophet using conda install -c conda-forge fbprophet

  6. At the end install holidays pip install holidays==0.9.12

  7. If it still doesn't work try this at last conda install psycopg2
