pyinstaller error : ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'mmcv._ext'

[wongyufei]

The plantform is win10, I install mmcv-full 1.1.5 for mmseg. It works well when I run main.py in pycharm. However, after using pyinstaller package it a exe. It wrongs! ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'mmcv._ext'

Here are the details：

Traceback (most recent call last): File "main.py", line 15, in File "PyInstaller\loader\pyimod03_importers.py", line 546, in exec_module File "mmseg\apis__init.py", line 1, in File "PyInstaller\loader\pyimod03_importers.py", line 546, in exec_module File "mmseg\apis\inference.py", line 8, in File "PyInstaller\loader\pyimod03_importers.py", line 546, in exec_module File "mmseg\models\init.py", line 1, in File "PyInstaller\loader\pyimod03_importers.py", line 546, in exec_module File "mmseg\models\backbones\init.py", line 2, in File "PyInstaller\loader\pyimod03_importers.py", line 546, in exec_module File "mmseg\models\backbones\fast_scnn.py", line 7, in File "PyInstaller\loader\pyimod03_importers.py", line 546, in exec_module File "mmseg\models\decode_heads\init.py", line 16, in File "PyInstaller\loader\pyimod03_importers.py", line 546, in exec_module File "mmseg\models\decode_heads\point_head.py", line 6, in File "PyInstaller\loader\pyimod03_importers.py", line 546, in exec_module File "mmcv\ops\init.py", line 1, in File "PyInstaller\loader\pyimod03_importers.py", line 546, in exec_module File "mmcv\ops\bbox.py", line 3, in File "mmcv\utils\ext_loader.py", line 11, in load_ext File "importlib\init__.py", line 126, in import_module ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'mmcv._ext'

Hi, I guess it is caused by version conflict between MMSegmentation and MMCV or installation failure of MMCV.

Please check out here: https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmdetection/issues/3765, https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmdetection/issues/3271

I suggest you uninstall MMCV and install correct MMCV-full again.

Best,

[wongyufei]

I install mmcv-full==1.1.5 mmsegmentation==0.12.0, I think it is reasonable. It works well when I run this code with pycharm, but it wrong after using pyinstaller pack it up.

OK, does it works well if you use terminal ?

[wongyufei]

Yes，it works well

[MengzhangLI]

OK, I will write down this issue and discuss with my colleagues.

Because it has something to do with PyInstaller, which beyond codebase itself, please wait for a couple of days.

Best,

[wongyufei]

Thanks for your reply！

[MengzhangLI]

Hi, did you check whether the environment is the same? I mean the pyinstaller uses same environment with terminal and pycharm?

[wongyufei]

I use anaconda build a new virtual env. And the pyinstaller is also installed in this env. I run main.py  code in this virtual env. and use pyinstaller in this virtual env.

I got the same problem. Do you have fixed it ?

[wongyufei]

No，I try to use cx_Freeze to pack the main.py. But it cannot load PyQt5 correctly.

after changing mmcv-full from 1.3.7 to 1.3.12, the problem is still exists. Probably my problem is different from yours. Thanks for your reply!

Try this command: pyinstaller --hidden-import=mmcv._ext --hidden-import torchvision --onefile our_python_file.py

Explain

We faced this issue exactly. Here my collage solution:

• While running pyinstaller, add --hidden-import with the path to your mmcv.
• While installing PyTorch, we only want to use CPU version, so in homepage of PyTorch, we use pip-cpu-version install command.

Our platform:

• Windows 11,
• GPU 1080Ti.
• Anaconda

If you want to package with PyTorch GPU version, I am not sure if this method works, but worth a try.
