I am trying to install rasa on macOS. I created a virtual python environment using pyenv virtualenv 3.7.3. and installed tensor flow using pipenv. after that I tried installing rasa but I am getting error. I also tried tensor flow 2.1.1 still gets the same error !

If you are using Mac then first activate the virtual environment

  • python3 -m vena /path/to/directory/name of environment

  • source name of environment/bin/activate

Now you have entered in the environment now try installing rasa and rasa x using this command

3

I was trying to install rasa in virtualenv only. :neutral_face:

4

did you try pip3 install rasa

5

yes

6

can you share the error with a Screen shot

7

I have attached above

8

try to change the version of tensorflow to pip3 install tensorflow==1.8.0

9

if this doesn’t help then you can uninstall tensorflow and try install pip3 install rasa this will install all the dependencies. revert if this helps

10

hey thanks for your time man. I tried after upgrading pip now the rasa got installed but I its telling:

tensorflow 2.1.1 has requirement scipy==1.4.1; python_version >= “3”, but you’ll have scipy 1.5.2 which is incompatible.

11

Yes that is ok about the scipy that is just a warning ignore it… Enjoy exploring and developing in rasa. Just give a shoutout about the issue being resolved. Happy to help :wink:

thanks . This warning also got resolved, after upgrading pip3 I uninstalled and again install tensor flow.then I installed rasa.
