Error Installing Microsoft CNTK

During installation I received the following error:

This script will setup the CNTK prequisites and the CNTK Python environment onto the machine. More help is given by calling 'get-help .\install.ps1' in your powershell environment.

The script will analyse your machine and will determine which components are required. The required components will be downloaded in [C:\local\Scripts\windows\InstallCache] Repeated operation of this script will reuse already downloaded components.

  • If required VS2012 Runtime and VS2013 Runtime will be installed
  • If required MSMPI will be installed
  • If required the standard Git tool will be installed
  • CNTK source will be cloned from Git into [c:\repos\CNTK]
  • Anaconda3 will be installed into [C:\local\Anaconda3-4.1.1-Windows-x86_64]
  • A CNTK-PY34 environment will be created in [C:\local\Anaconda3-4.1.1-Windows-x86_64\envs]
  • CNTK will be installed into the CNTK-PY34 environment

1 - I agree and want to continue Q - Quit the installation process

1 Determining Operations to perform. This will take a moment...

The following operations will be performed: * Setup/Update CNTK Wheel * Clone CNTK from Github repository

Do you want to continue? (y/n) y Performing download operations Download operations finished

Performing install operations Setup/Update of CNTK Wheel environment. Please be patient.... You are using pip version 8.1.2, however version 9.0.0 is available. You should consider upgrading via the 'python -m pip install --upgrade pip' command. Cloning CNTK (branch v2.0.beta2.0) repository....

Fatal error during script execution! System.InvalidOperationException: This command cannot be run due to the error: The system cannot find the file specifie d. at System.Management.Automation.MshCommandRuntime.ThrowTerminatingError(ErrorRecord errorRecord)

PS C:\local\Scripts\windows>

I'm not familiar with powershell, so I am not sure where to go from here.

Couple of questions. Are you using beta1 or beta2? If you are using beta1, just a reminder that there is a beta2 now available with bug fixes and also some improvements to the install script, but I don't think this particular problem has been addressed!

It looks like the clone of the cntk git repository is failing.

Was Git installed on your machine? Is there a GIT.EXE in c:\Program Files\Git\bin\?

I think the install found an existing git.exe (in a different location), and is now trying to call it at the 'wrong' location.

The easiest workaround for you (if you have git installed), from a command prompt:

 cd c:/
 md \repos
 cd repos
 clone --branch v2.0.beta1.0 --recursive https://github.com/Microsoft/CNTK

If you have moved to beta2, replace the v2.0.beta1.0 with v2.0.beta2.0
