Which version of Protobuf? about openpose HOT 10 CLOSED

Protobuf is asked by Caffe, so whatever version the specific Caffe version requires.

from openpose.

What are your OS and CUDA versions?

I just modified the Caffe installation to fix a small bug in old compilers. I do not thing this is your case, but you should try again.

If it does not work, you might install Caffe manually (without the sh script). Manual installation steps here:
https://github.com/CMU-Perceptual-Computing-Lab/openpose/blob/master/doc/installation.md

If it does not work either, you might not have some Caffe prerequisites, try installing Caffe by your own with their installation steps:

Please, let me know what the issue was or which option did work for you. Thanks!

I am on Ubuntu 14.04 and CUDA 8. The new fix didn't change anything. This seems to be a caffe problem with me, as I am unable to build caffe at all because of protobuf issues. Closing as doesn't seem to be relevant to openpose. Thanks.

OK, I am sorry to hear that.

Maybe completely uninstalling the Protobuf library and then reinstalling again?

Once you are able to fix it, if you could let some details here for people with the same problem we will highly appreciate it! Thanks!

@gineshidalgo99 hello ,I already upgrade protobuf(3.2),but I still meet the problem when sh ./install_caffe_and_openpose.sh. My system is cuda 8.0,Ubuntu 14.04.

Maybe you did not clean the installation first? I.e.
make clean && cd 3rdparty/caffe/ && make clean

Let us know whether it works now! Thanks!

from openpose.

able to compile caffe on its own with protobuf 3.0.0 (not using apt version). I had not been doing make clean. make clean got it compiling properly. I then modified my Makefile.config (also had to modify Makefile.config.example) to use my version of caffe.

from openpose.

Perfect! I'll close this issue then (I accidentally re-opened it)

@gineshidalgo99 Can you please answer the original question, which version of protobuf should be used?
It was mentioned that it "works" with 3.0.0 but is this the desired version?

from openpose.

I could also get around the arena.h error message with protobuf 3.0.
I used the anaconda libraries: conda install protobuf==3.0. Before I had to uninstall a newer version of protobuf from the anaconda installation.
