I still don’t think you have NuPIC installed right. What were the steps you took to install, and the console output when the step(s) failed?

Hi, Taylor,
Thanks for your timely response, actually, I don’t think I installed nupic correctly, either. However, I have tried many methods got from the google and this forum.

When I use the command ‘pip install nupic --user’, I got the error:

Then add ‘sudo’, like this ‘sudo pip install nupic’.

For this first time, I was so happy that I tried tests ‘py.test tests/unit errors’. Unfortunately. the error occured like illustrated above.

I tried other methods, but none of these possible solutions suits mine.

Do you have the right pip version as described here?

5

Hi, Taylor, thanks for your patience :smile: . Yes, I have got the right pip version (9.01)

python version is 2.7.13 and My MacOS is Sierra version 10.12.4 I don’t know if this matters.

one more thing, in my OS, there is also python 3.6, but I don’t think this will arise some conflicts.

Actually, our team focuses on htm recently which is thought as a very promising algorithm, nevertheless, no one installed nupic successfully. we all use macOS.

We will appreciate it if you kindly offer us a painless installing way. For now, we are all going crazy…:sob:

6

That’s not good! We all use macOS too. Usually pip install nupic --user works.

7

Yes, I have watched many your videos on youtube, and I notice that you use MacOS. But is there any thing we could do as this is not an incident-- we all get crashed?

8

This seems like a permission problem. Can you try uninstalling nupic completely? Then run pip install nupic --user and paste the complete console output in a gist.

Thanks for your kindly continuously attention. I applied a ‘tough’ method: install nupic in another Mac, which worked except 6 tests error. But this is all right as it is in my ‘receptive field’.
Thanks…
