Azure ML Tutorial - Failed to load entrypoint automl

Kenny 1

I'm doing following tutorial. I run successfully "Create and run a Python script", but failed failed to run "Create a control script".

What could be wrong?

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/machine-learning/tutorial-1st-experiment-hello-world

azureuser@kensmlcompute:~/cloudfiles/code/Users/my.name/get-started$ python run-hello.py   
Failure while loading azureml_run_type_providers. Failed to load entrypoint automl =

@Kenny I think the error indicates that your environment is using pyarrow package which is of version 4.0.0 whereas azureml-dataset-runtime requires the package to be >=0.17.0 but <4.0.0

It would be easier for you to uninstall the package and install a specific version. The list of releases of pyarrow are available here.

Since you are using a notebook create new cells and run these commands.

!pip uninstall pyarrow  

!pip install -y pyarrow==3.0.0

Please feel free to mark the answer as accepted if it helps. Thanks.

@Rohit Mungi , I met the same situation. Following your instruction.
It is showing the following:

Found existing installation: pyarrow 3.0.0
Uninstalling pyarrow-3.0.0:
Successfully uninstalled pyarrow-3.0.0
Collecting pyarrow==3.0.0
Using cached pyarrow-3.0.0-cp36-cp36m-manylinux2014_x86_64.whl (20.7 MB)
Requirement already satisfied: numpy>=1.16.6 in /anaconda/envs/azureml_py36/lib/python3.6/site-packages (from pyarrow==3.0.0) (1.18.5)
ERROR: azureml-opendatasets 1.28.0 has requirement scipy<=1.4.1,>=1.0.0, but you'll have scipy 1.5.2 which is incompatible.
Installing collected packages: pyarrow
Successfully installed pyarrow-3.0.0

However the pyarrow installation is at (/anaconda/envs/azureml_py36), and the Failed to load entrypoint automl error is at (/anaconda/envs/azureml_py38/), do you have any idea? Thanks

@Gf In your case the requirement with scipy is not met and the installation of pyarrow was with errors. Please try to uninstall scipy and pyarrow, then install the right version.

!pip uninstall pyarrow !pip uninstall scipy !pip install -y scipy==1.4.1 !pip install -y pyarrow==3.0.0

Hi,@Rohit Mungi

I have tried your suggestion in .ipynb file:

However, When I run the .py file, It still get the error:

I guess they are in different environment, any idea?

I think all the dependencies have to be resolved as per the error messages for scipy. You can install the errored packages with similar pip commands and supported versions.

I am also not sure if pyarrow installed correctly as the error in the second screen indicates it could be missing. I would recommend to restart your kernel or try the same in a new environment.
