from pycocotools.coco import COCO fails

[Thrasi]

After the update the tutorial doesn't run.

`$ git clone https://github.com/pdollar/coco.git
$ cd coco/PythonAPI
$ ipython

from pycocotools.coco import COCO fails
...
ImportError: No module named _mask`

[Thrasi]

my bad. forgot to make

[jgmatu]

Thanks the script I create must be place in PythonAPI/ and you have to make first.

Hello, i am quite new, but can you write the exact steps that should be followed in order one to do make?

[kunimatsu-tri]

The steps below worked for me:

$ cd coco/PythonAPI
$ make
$ sudo make install
$ sudo python setup.py install

[Thrianadh]

It Runs 2.6 or 2.7 Only

python 2.6.x or 2.7.x (not python 3.x)
numpy 1.2.1 or later (the version must fit to the python version)
matplotlib 1.0.1 or later (the version must fit to the python version)

Add one more comment. If you use python 3, then you should change '$ sudo python setup.py install' to '$ sudo python3 setup.py install'.

[lihua213]

@cardwing Can you run it successfully with python 3?

[salihkaragoz]

@lihua213 Hello I installed, you can see at below

sudo apt install python3-pip
pip3 install Cython
pip3 install numpy

then i changed 'python' --> 'python3' in cocoapi/PythonAPI/Makefile
you can check in here
then run make under the PythonAPI

best

is there a way to make with a windows set up? I am using python 3.6

[tfoa]

@BrownPanther hey we have same problem, im using windows and python 3.65 too, and still tryin yet, if u already solved it pls let me know too,

[jgmatu]

it is possible you need install some dependencies if the problem is on the import. I dont remember how I fix the issue but is possible this help you.

@tfoa I didn't end up using this architecture but I remember solving the issue. This is my comment from this video I was following:

Just want to say the issue is resolved - the problem was I didn't build coco correctly with
pip install git+https://github.com/philferriere/cocoapi.git#subdirectory=PythonAPI
because my tensorflow dependencies were out of whack

[tfoa]

actually i try install: python setup.py build_ext from( https://github.com/epfml/sent2vec) and i founded command line error d8021L invalid nurmeric argument '/Wno-cpp' so i try install coco and thought it still cant fix it..but yet it isnt..so do u think its installed on linux only ?cause windows still cant get it ?

Hi
I installed it successfully. However, I couldnt "import pycocotools._mask" in different directory.
Please help! Thanks.

Hi

Please help! Thanks.

I'm having this problem too. Any luck resolving it?

[MitraTj]

Hi @Glomels I just uninstalled it completely and re-installed. then it works!
try and let us know

[vyviansomaya]

It still fails for me. these are the following steps I took

$ git clone https://github.com/pdollar/coco.git
$ cd coco/PythonAPI
$ make
$python setup.py install

I open a new notebook in AWS SageMaker in the PythonAPI directory and tried to import pycocotools, it succeeded.
Next, I tried "from pycocotools.coco import COCO" and got the "No module named _mask" output. I have done everything in the comments above and I still fail. The only difference I notice is that I'm using SageMaker . should that be the issue? or if its something else please let me know!

[Samjith888]

While run make on COCO\PythonAPI, got the following error
Unable to find vcvarsall.bat

Then i used the command "python setup.py build_ext --inplace" in the Makefile in the COCO\PythonAPI , Hence I'm getting the following error. How can i solve this issues and make it successfully

getting the following error

[Samjith888]

The steps below worked for me:

$ cd coco/PythonAPI
$ make
$ sudo make install
$ sudo python setup.py install

Getting error: command 'cl.exe' failed: no such files or directory

[juhoward]

Try replacing extra_compile_args=['-Wno-cpp', '-Wno-unused-function', '-std=c99'] with extra_compile_args={'gcc': ['/Qstd=c99']} in coco/pycocotools/setup.py.

And then run python setup.py install again
