getting the following cuda error about stable-karlo

[kpthedev]

It seems like your Pytorch installation doesn't have CUDA enabled. You can check on the Pytorch website for how to install it with CUDA enabled for your system.

On Windows, after the source step, try running this:

pip install torch torchvision torchaudio --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu117

I tried that but still receive the error. chatgpt recommended i install cuda toolkit, but that has no effect. i also get this at the beginning:
text_encoder\model.safetensors not found
Fetching 26 files: 100%|##########| 26/26 [00:00<00:00, 1663.92it/s]

Same here. Fix doesn't work either.

Are you sure you have an Nvidia GPU that is compatible with CUDA? Perhaps you don't have the CUDA toolkit installed.

Here is a link to download the CUDA toolkit: https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads

After you've set up CUDA, go into the stable-karlo folder, activate the environment, and try this:

1. pip install -r requirements.txt
2. pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall torch --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu117

That should force Pytorch to rebuild with CUDA support.

Personally speaking, I'm already running other PyTorch/CUDA apps on this PC (in different venvs)

@andybak Are you also running it on Windows? Do you think you could attach the error message you're getting?

[gsgoldma]

i actually got the error resolved. i am on windows. i screwed up by making my own env instead of using the .env to install the packages. unforunately, got an oom error, so it seems like i don't have enough vram. i guess ill wait till it gets optimized more

[andybak]

How did you resolve it? Other people still have this issue so probably best to leave it open!

[gsgoldma]

the bash command wasn't being recognized on my pc, even though i was doing it in gitbash. i was probably doing something wrong. the code is below.

git clone https://github.com/kpthedev/stable-karlo.git
cd stable-karlo
python -m venv .env
source .env/bin/activate <---- changed this for conda
pip install -r requirements.txt

so i just used conda/command line and chatpgpt told me to just use .env/scripts/activate.bat so i could activate the env .env to install the requirements, then it worked. i may have had to force install the torch from the comment earlier, but i don't remember if that was actually necessary.

Yeah, I got a chance to test on Windows and I had to use the activate.bat with the torch reinstall as you said.

As for the OOM errors, you can try the cpu-offloading branch. I was able to generate Karlo images with 8GB of VRAM, but the upscaling requires way more.
