No module named 'numpy.core._multiarray_umath' #12977

bsathyan · 2019-02-16T11:55:20Z

I just installed TensorFlow, Keras in anaconda3.

C:\conda create --name neuralnets python=3.7
C:\activate neuralnets

(neuralnets) C:\conda install theano
(neuralnets) C:\conda install mingw libpython
(neuralnets) C:\pip install tensorflow
(neuralnets) C:\pip install keras

Reproducing code example:

Executed this command:

(neuralnets) C:\python -c "from keras import backend; print(backend._BACKEND)"

Got the following error:

Probably a duplicate of #12957 due to ContinuumIO/anaconda-issues#10628. Copied comment from the duplicate issue:

There is a difference between the location of the extra support libraries supplied with anaconda and those supplied with stock numpy that you get from pip install. This requires adjustments to the PATH variable. Perhaps the PATH adjustments are failing at import. Does the site-packages\numpy\.libs directory exist and does it contain *.dll files?, If so, can you try to prepend that directory to your PATH before running python:

rem This fails
python -c "import numpy"

rem Does this succeed ??? 
PATH=path\to\site-packages\numpy\.libs;%PATH%
python -c "import numpy"

But in your case something is different, the path to numpy is missing a path separator: C:\Users\Z0035HPP\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python37\site-packages\numpy\core__init__.py should be C:\Users\Z0035HPP\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python37\site-packages\numpy\core\__init__.py. Is that a copy paste error?

eric-wieser · 2019-02-17T00:38:59Z

the path to numpy is missing a path separator:

Just a github formatting issue, wrapping in ``` made that go away

eric-wieser · 2019-02-17T00:39:38Z

@bsathyan: You've not shown us the full error message. Can you paste the part that comes after the last ImportError too?

bsathyan · 2019-02-17T11:27:28Z

@eric-wieser attached below is the full error thread. Please do let me know if you need anything else.

Did the fix suggested in the comment above help? This is a known problem with Anaconda.

NishitHada · 2019-02-20T03:03:33Z

No, the path was already correct for me. And yes, this is a problem with anaconda. I used Virtual Environment for the same code and it ran quite well. Something is probably wrong with anaconda it seems.

rgommers · 2019-02-22T16:22:20Z

pip install tensorflow picked up numpy from PyPI. Try

pip uninstall numpy
conda install numpy

that will probably fix things

mkurovski · 2019-02-26T20:43:19Z

Hi,
I ran into the same issue and followed the advice to uninstall numpy using pip and installing it again with conda - but wasn't successful though.
However, I was trying to get tensorboard up running with the following ImportError, not exactly the same, but maybe related:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'numpy.core._multiarray_umath'
ImportError: numpy.core.multiarray failed to import

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 968, in _find_and_load
SystemError: <class '_frozen_importlib._ModuleLockManager'> returned a result with an error set

Are you running tensorlow using a 3.6 python ? Tensorflow simply does not work with python 3.7.
I suggest you do this:

Create a new 3.6 python environment, you can do this by running this from terminal, assuming you have anaconda:
conda create --name tensorflow python=3.6
activate tensorflow:
activate tensorflow
once activated, trying installing off all your packages.

mkurovski · 2019-02-26T20:55:30Z

Hi @mjahmad ,
Thanks for your reply. Indeed I am running Python 3.6.7 in my environment

mkurovski · 2019-02-26T21:09:24Z

OK, I got it now. Just to share in case there might be something useful in for you.
I uninstalled tensorflow again and only installed version 1.12 of tensorboard:
pip install tensorboard==1.12
Works now

hi!
I succeeded in installing tensorflow in python3.7

Failed on first install Message: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'numpy.core._multiarray_umath'

Hello,

I have the same issue and tried it with 3.7 and 3.6 enviroment. But there is still the following error:

from keras.models import Sequential

Using TensorFlow backend.

ModuleNotFoundError Traceback (most recent call last)
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'numpy.core._multiarray_umath'

!pip uninstall numpy
does'nt work. It runs and runs without any result.

Thanks!

Okay, sorry guy's I solved the problem. Maybe it will help you:
Update to the latest version of numpy :D
!pip install --upgrade numpy

Closing. Hopefully these problems have been solved on the Anaconda side, and some of the suggestions here seem suboptimal. The best solution seems to be

pip uninstall numpy
conda install numpy

hello
i am getting same error while accessing tensorflow as bellow.

ModuleNotFoundError Traceback (most recent call last)

Solloution :- Update Numpy with latest version

setp to update numpy as follow

setp1 open cmd
setp2 write pip install numpy==leatest version and press Enter
example pip install numpy==1.16.2

evan-magnusson · 2019-04-17T23:29:50Z

pip install tensorflow picked up numpy from PyPI. Try
pip uninstall numpy

This worked for me as well. It looks like pip installing tensorflow added a second version of numpy

allanwenzs · 2019-04-30T18:42:14Z

I had the same kind of error, I solved it by creating virtual environment using anaconda, then installing the necessary libraries, it worked.

Jairodub · 2019-05-19T08:46:36Z

I had the same issue and somehow got past it by running

pip uninstall numpy
conda install numpy
pip install numpy

9lash · 2019-06-09T18:06:22Z

Looks like this error is because of multiple packages not installed properly in your specific env. For me, jupyter notebook was not installed in that specific virtual environment. I followed the above comments:

pip uninstall numpy
conda install numpy
pip install numpy

And then the following fixed it:

conda install jupyter
conda install -c conda-forge matplotlib 
conda install -c anaconda pandas

Now when you open the jupyter notebook from the environment and write the following:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
import tensorflow as tf

there are no errors.
