Install on Windows 10?

[hulsmeier]

I'm running python setup.py install on Windows 10 but when i try to run training it tells me "No Module named 'point_pillars'. Is Windows not supported or am I missing something?

Yes, some people have faced this issue before. I think this happens because the PointPillars.cpp file is installed at a path that is not readable with python.

If you look at the logs from python setup.py install, the files are being copied to build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg. This directory in your case is not readable. Maybe you can copy the installed files and paste them into your Point Pillars directory, that might work.

So I tried copying those files but that didn't work. Here is my log.

One way out that I can see is to run this code using a terminal in Jupyterlab. In that case, since you are running a conda environment, the dependencies will be installed in the correct directories. Can you try that? Try installing Anaconda for Python 3 on Windows.

[hulsmeier]

Hey so i tried your suggestion. Ran Jupyter Lab through Anaconda and then tried running the setup in a terminal. Still gives me the same problem though.

Is it something to do with this line?

warning: install_lib: 'build\lib.win-amd64-3.6' does not exist -- no Python modules to install

Hi just wanted to follow up on this, were you able to figure it out?

[hulsmeier]

Hi, I haven't been able to solve it unfortunately.

[tyagi-iiitv]

Ohh okay, I'll try it out on my system and will let you know if I figure out the soln.

Were you able to figure it out??

[ma7555]

I was able to fix it on Windows, will fork and fix it as soon as possible

[tyagi-iiitv]

Hi @ma7555, can you please submit a PR with this fix? Thanks for the work!

[ma7555]

Hello @tyagi-iiitv, I didn't have the chance to check the solution on Linux/Ubuntu though...

[ma7555]

Hello again,

There is an easier solution that I found without altering the source code for now.

After python setup.py install

copy '.pyd' file from .\PointPillars\build\temp.win32-3.8\Release\Release to C:\Users\USERNAME\anaconda3\envs\ENVNAME\Lib\site-packages
