ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'scarlet.operators_pybind11'

[silkerice]

Hi!

When trying to import scarlet I get the following error:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'scarlet.operators_pybind11'

I did install pybind11, and when I open the scarlet file I do see the operators_pybind11.cc, so I don't understand what's going on. Can somebody help me with this?

Kind regards,

Silke

That is a very common issue referenced here #251 . We need to find a way to make the error more explicit as to how to avoid it. Sorry about that. If you are importing scarlet from within the repo, please try instead to import it from a different repo/location.

Thank you for responding so quickly! I'm not running scarlet from within the repo. I also updated libgcc. I'm using python 3.9.5 and git version 1.8.3.1. Do you know what else could be going wrong?

If you are not running from within the repo (which, as Remy pointed out, you shouldn't), how did you install in? Do you get any errors during the setup process?

[silkerice]

I followed the installation guide: https://pmelchior.github.io/scarlet/install.html . I didn't get any errors in the setup process.

What platform are you on?

Hi! Sorry for the late response. I'm using a Linux OS, with miniconda and I'm running the program in Jupyter lab.

OK, that's all standard. I assume your python is also recent (>=3.7). If so, please rerun python setup.py install and check carefully if there are errors during the compilation and install.

@silkerice would you mind posting what fixed your issue for future reference? Thanks.

I don't know what caused the issue at first, but because of the installing/re-installing the path to the module lead to an empty directory. After changing the path everything worked smoothly again.
