many reasons, often due to issues with your setup or how NumPy was
installed.

Original error was: dlopen(Library/Python/3.8/lib/python/site-packages/numpy/core/_multiarray_umath.cpython-38-darwin.so, 0x0002): tried: 'Library/Python/3.8/lib/python/site-packages/numpy/core/_multiarray_umath.cpython-38-darwin.so' (mach-o file, but is an incompatible architecture (have 'arm64', need 'x86_64'))

Thanks

Answer 1

from your error message: (mach-o file, but is an incompatible architecture (have 'arm64', need 'x86_64'))

It's a little ambiguous as it could be interpreted either way round, but I think it means that IntelliJ is running using Rosetta2 in X86 mode, whereas the numpy/pandas installation the python PATH has is your arm version. (The alternative is the reverse of this, but this way round is more likely).

In order to run your program, you'll need to create a python environment which uses Rosetta2 and installs X86 binaries instead of arm. I've written about how to do this here as a reference for myself. Then IntelliJ should have a setting somewhere to specify the python environment to use for execution and debugging, you should set that environment/PATH to your new X86 environment.
