Install rasa on aarch64

Rasa Open Source
1

Hello,

i am trying to install rasa nlu on my orange pi aarch64.

The command I run to install in a virtualenv is the following:

pip3 install rasa == 2.5.0 rasa-sdk == 2.5.0.

The installation fails with the following error:

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement tensorflow-text <2.4,> = 2.3; sys_platform! = "win32" (from rasa == 2.5.0) (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for tensorflow-text <2.4,> = 2.3; sys_platform! = "win32" (from rasa == 2.5.0)

What can I do for you?

Thanks to anyone who wants to give me a suggestion.

Welcome to the forum!

The docs recommend using Windows, macOS, or Ubuntu.

Anyway, please show me the output of pip3 -V in your virtual environment.

3

Thanks for the reply. But in which architectures can I install rasa? This below is the version of pip.

pip3 -V
pip 20.0.2

I am using orange pi

4

Is this the full output of pip3 -V?

If not, please show it. If yes, please show me the output of python -V.

You just need AVX.

Run more /proc/cpuinfo | grep flags | grep avx . If you don’t see a result, it means your CPU does not support it.

Hi Chris. Are you interested in working in a rasa project daily for 1 Month? Please contact me

6

No thank you, I already have a job and I’m a student as well - no time for side projects :slight_smile:

Try posting in the Jobs in Conversational AI category.

8

The cpu does not support AVX. Is it necessary for tensorflow and rasa?

9

Yes it is - unless you want to build Tensorflow from source.

10

Ok, I’ll try. For rasa 2.5 which version of tensorflow should I install?

11

I installed tensorflow with the command

pip3 install tensorflow-aarch64

I then installed rasa with the command

pip3 install rasa

I had no mistakes.

running the rasa command, I get rasa mot found

if i run the python -m rasa command, i get the error module not found.

Do I try to compile rasa?

Thank you

12

Sorry for not answering previously!

Maybe @nik202 can help better? :sweat_smile:

I the meantime, make sure pip3 -V and python -V give you the same Python version. If not, try python3 -m rasa.

14 
pip3 -V
pip 21.3.1 from rasanlu/venv/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pip (python 3.8)

python -V
Python 3.8.10

I installed pip3 install tensorflow-aarch64 and rasa. Now running the python3 -m rasa command I get the following error:

Error while finding module specification for 'rasa.__main__'
(ImportError: cannot import name 'ASA' from partially initialized module 'rasa'
(most likely due to a circular import)
(/home/tbop/src/rasanlu/venv/lib/python3.8/site-packages/rasa/__init__.py))
15

I tried to compile rasa. Running the make install command, I get the following error:

poetry run python -m pip install -U pip
Requirement already satisfied: pip in /home/tbop/src/rasanlu/venv/lib/python3.8/site-packages (22.0.4)

What can I do? I’m just having trouble installing rasa on orange pi.

@tboprob only one simple question, are you able to install Anaconda on your system, yes or no (please try and get back to me)

Ref: Installing on Linux-aarch64 (arm64) — Anaconda documentation (If you need any help)

17

Trying to install anaconda, I get the following error: Anaconda3-2021.11-Linux-aarch64.sh: line 408: 20639 Illegal instruction “$ CONDA_EXEC” constructor --prefix “$ PREFIX” --extract-conda-pkgs

18

@tboprob Ok. If you are not able to install even Anaconda then I’m afraid there is no possible solution from my side as I never personally installed on aarch64. Did the above-mentioned link didn’t help you?

19

Yes, the link was useful to me. i managed to install conda mac older version. when I run conda istall rasa = 2.5 CondaHTTPError: HTTP 000 CONNECTION FAILED for url if i run a wget of the json from the address, i can download it. I can’t find a solution.

20

@tboprob do mention me next time.

@tboprob if you are able to install anaconda follow these steps as mentioned in this thread :

Please install Anaconda from Anaconda | Individual Edition , then create the conda environment using the following command

  1. conda create -n rasa2 python=3.8
  2. conda activate rasa 2

PS: If you using Linux, check the environment for the same.

Note: I’d recommend creating a fresh environment if not you can proceed with the next steps:

For Rasa Open Source:

`pip install rasa==2.8.1`
`pip install rasa-sdk==2.8.1'

OR

As per your requirements.

check version rasa --version is install or not

For Installing basic project:

rasa init

Do get back to me on this good luck!

@tboprob I highly recommend to tag me next time, please!

@tboprob

Rasa open source is not yet supported on Python 3.9.

Congrats if you were able to install conda now follow this thread and install Rasa Open source.

Note: Please follow the steps before Rasa X only first :slight_smile:

I wish you are now able to install ROS and Good Luck!
