在virtualenv中运行GPU集群上的tensorflow

Question

I installed the GPU version of tensorflow in a virtualenv following these instructions . The problem is, I am getting a segmentation fault upon starting a session. That is, this code:

import tensorflow as tf
sess = tf.InteractiveSession()

exits with the following error:

(tesnsorflowenv)user@machine$ python testtensorflow.py 
I tensorflow/stream_executor/dso_loader.cc:101] successfully opened CUDA library libcublas.so.7.0 locally
I tensorflow/stream_executor/dso_loader.cc:93] Couldn't open CUDA library libcudnn.so.6.5. LD_LIBRARY_PATH: :/vol/cuda/7.0.28/lib64

Segmentation fault

I tried to dig deeper using gdb but only got the following additional outputs:

[New Thread 0x7fffdf880700 (LWP 32641)]
[New Thread 0x7fffdf07f700 (LWP 32642)]
... lines omitted

[Thread 0x7fffadffb700 (LWP 32681) exited]
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()

Any ideas what is happening here and how to fix it?

Here is the output of nvidia-smi:

Thanks for any help on this issue!

Answer 1

It's not finding CuDNN -

I tensorflow/stream_executor/dso_loader.cc:93] Couldn't open CUDA library > libcudnn.so.6.5. LD_LIBRARY_PATH: :/vol/cuda/7.0.28/lib64 I tensorflow/stream_executor/cuda/cuda_dnn.cc:1382] Unable to load cuDNN DSO

You need to have it installed. Please see the TensorFlow CUDA installation instructions

Answer 2

After untar the cudnn

[root@localhost cudnn]# cd include/
[root@localhost include]# mv cudnn.h /usr/local/cuda/include/
[root@localhost include]# cd ../lib64/
[root@localhost lib64]# mv * /usr/local/cuda/lib

And it is ok

[root@localhost ~]# python
