could not import redmax_py

[Navneet-Kaur21]

I have tried installing using the source and the docker method. (For both DiffHand and TactileSimulation)
I keep getting the same error again and again. Could you please help solving this?

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "test_sim_speed.py", line 13, in
import redmax_py as redmax
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'redmax_py'

Did you install DiffRedMax successfully (Step 4 in README instruction):

cd externals/DiffHand/core
python setup.py install

After you successfully install it, you should be able to import redmax_py in your conda environment.

Hi Jie Yes, I did. Here is the screenshot of the output after running the install command. [image: image.png]

I have followed the instructions in the README file. (docker and source both). In both the cases it gives the same error.

That's strange. I just tried to install the codebase from scratch and it works for me. Right after you install redmax_py and open a python session in your command line, could you run import redmax_py?

[Navneet-Kaur21]

On running import redmax_py I get this:

[eanswer]

I see, could you check two things for me:

1. Which python path you are using, run below in terminal

which python

2. Check whether redmax_py is installed in your conda environment:

pip list | grep redmax-py

[eanswer]

May be also which pip

[Navneet-Kaur21]

1. /home/anaconda3/bin/python
2. returns nothing.
3. /home/anaconda3/bin/pip

[eanswer]

It seems that you are not in your conda env as shown in the python and pip path

[Navneet-Kaur21]

Okay. Here are the results in the env:

1. /home/navneetkaur/anaconda3/envs/tactile_control_env/bin/python
2. redmax-py 0.0.1
3. /home/navneetkaur/anaconda3/envs/tactile_control_env/bin/pip

[eanswer]

Then it seems you have installed redmax_py. Can you import it if you open a python via /home/navneetkaur/anaconda3/envs/tactile_control_env/bin/python

[Navneet-Kaur21]

Uhh no.

that's so weird, I'm sorry that I have no other ideas about what went wrong...

[Navneet-Kaur21]

I tried it with a different pc. It is giving the same error. Could there be anything missing in the installation? Some prerequisites that I need before I can install it successfully?
