Getting build error

[sainisanjay]

Hi @fengfu-chris , I am tried to build caffe-twns in my ubuntu 14.04 LTS. But i am getting some cudnn error like below i mentioned. In my system cuda is working fine. May i know how to solve the problem.

@fengfu-chris when i build without CUDNN #USE_CUDNN := 1 (in make file) it build successfully. It means that its not supporting cudnn 5.0(as in my system cudnn 5.0 has installed). Any idea how to solve?

[fengfu-chris]

Hi, @sainisanjay, cudnn 5.0 is not supported by this caffe repo. Sorry for that. Please use earlier cudnn versions(<=4.0).

Thanks @fengfu-chris for your response.

You are welcome. @sainisanjay
