`ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement tensorflow-addons<0.9,>=0.8 (from rasa) (from versions: 0.5.0, 0.5.1, 0.5.2, 0.6.0, 0.7.0, 0.7.1) ERROR: No matching distribution found for tensorflow-addons<0.9,>=0.8 (from rasa)` When I try to install rasa through `pip install rasa`, the above error is what I’m getting. I’m working on MacOS in a virtual env that I created using `python3 -m venv --system-site-packages ./venv`, and my python version is 3.7.3. I’m not sure what the problem might me - it could be the version of python I’m using, in which case, what version is the best to work with rasa? I tried downgrading with brew but I haven’t been able to, so some help with that will also be appreciated! ---

I am facing the same issue. `pip install rasa` `Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement tensorflow-addons<0.9,>=0.8.` Do we need to downgrade to a specific version of rasa to be compatible with the available versions of the required tensorflow-addons library? These versions are: 0.5.0, 0.5.1, 0.5.2, 0.6.0, 0.7.0, 0.7.1 ---

note that [rasa 1.8 just came out](http://forum.rasa.com/t/upgrading-to-v1-8/25391) that seems to use a newer version of TF, so rather than solving the problem you have now, you can try 1.8 (and probably have a new problem 😭) `pip install rasa ==1.8` related solution to your problem with 1.7 and TF on this forum post: > [@Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement tensorflow~=1.15.0](http://forum.rasa.com/t/could-not-find-a-version-that-satisfies-the-requirement-tensorflow-1-15-0/21509/25): > > This is cos the version of TF (1.15) that the rasa installer requires is pretty old and isn’t compatible with python 3.8. The solution would be to downgrade python to 3.6 (maybe 3.7) and try again. TF on it’s own works fine with python 3.8: pip install [https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/mac/cpu/tensorflow-1.8.0-py3-none-any.whl](https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/mac/cpu/tensorflow-1.8.0-py3-none-any.whl) this is what I did on a mac: I already had python3.6 installed with brew brew link --overwrite python python3.7 --version virtualenv -p python3.7 venv source… ---

After some digging around I was able to successfully install a previous version of 1.7. `pip install rasa==1.7.0` Need to install some libraries separately like `tensorflow-cpu==1.15.0` as I am testing rasa on a mac-os. ---

We are currently looking into this. Seems to be an issue with older OSX versions (10.13 and 10.14). `tensorflow-addons` had some issues and they didn’t release packages for these OS versions… In any case, we are in contact with them, should be resolved shortly. ---

Any updates on how to resolve this issue? I am having the same problem. I have tried all solutions posted in this thread so far. OSX==10.13.6 rasa==1.8 python==3.7 I reverted to rasa 1.7 and retrained the model, now I’m running into this error: rasa\_nlu.model.UnsupportedModelError: The model version is to old to be loaded by this Rasa NLU instance. Either retrain the model, or run withan older version. Model version: 0.0.0 Instance version: 0.15.1 Any insight would be greatly appreciated! ---

Same issue here. If anybody happen to have a wheel for the TensorFlow version required by Rasa (==1.15), I guess it would be the easiest solution. Or maybe adjust the requirement in the Rasa itself? ---

@nlp can you update your OSX? I’m on `10.15.3 ` and managed to get around this issue. ---

btw Rasa folks you might want to create a little script like `rasa env` that would print out the os env, rasa version etc for bug reports. I was working on another project that did this and it was super easy for ppl to use and helpful. node based but … > ---
