"No such file or directory: program.fbs" when export_add.py file is a sibling of `executorch` repo directory

🐛 Describe the bug

Generating .pte is failing at edge_program.to_executorch for default example. https://pytorch.org/executorch/main/getting-started-setup.html

@andrei-cioaca , have you done ./install_requirements.sh successfully? (Cannot reproduce it from my side).

[andrei-cioaca]

Yes. Install is succesful also with the backends, all three - coreml, mps, xnnpack. Also I can generate the execute_runner successfully.

The only thing that I can't do is to generate the .pte file with any script. Same error all over again.

This is what would happen if python is trying to execute directly from the repo, rather than from the installed executorch pip package. What directory are you in when you run this? You could try cd-ing to a directory that does not contain a subdirectory named executorch

I tried to execute from another directory, but get the same error. I did install from repo using conda.

In your logs, does the PATH in "/[PATH]/executorch/exir/_serialize/_flatbuffer.py" point to the repo, or to site-packages?

E.g. when I run

python3 -c "from executorch import exir; print(exir.__file__)"

it prints

/Users/???/.homebrew/Caskroom/miniconda/base/envs/executorch/lib/python3.10/site-packages/executorch/exir/__init__.py

And just to check, you're running the code block from https://pytorch.org/executorch/main/getting-started-setup.html#export-a-program and executing from the commandline using python3 export_add.py ?

What is your current directory when you run this?

[andrei-cioaca]

When I run python3 -c "from executorch import exir; print(exir.file)" it prints /opt/anaconda3/envs/executorch/lib/python3.12/site-packages/executorch/exir/__init__.py

Ok, so I moved the export_add.py file in another director, one that not contains executorch git repo as a subdirector and working now. The example from examples.models.llama2.export_llama also working

I guess is what you mentioned previously. Is there somewhere in the documentation this, because I miss it if is.

Thanks for support @dbort

[andrei-cioaca]

Fixed

[dbort]

I'm glad that worked for you @andrei-cioaca. This is definitely an issue that other users might hit, so I'm re-opening the issue to see how we can mitigate it.

We'll also update the docs to help avoid and recover from this problem.

[dbort]

The ultimate solution for this is to follow python-layout best practices, and move our python files under //executorch/src/executorch/exir/... etc. rather than using the executorch/ repo directory itself as part of the import paths. Then, users will be less likely to import local paths rather than site-packages, since they won't likely a) put scripts in the //executorch/src directory or b) cd to //executorch/src when running scripts.
