google.protobuf.text_format.ParseError when instantiating a TensorFlow model with Python

I'm on Ubuntu 16.04. I have: Python 2.7.12, Python 3.5.2, tensorflow 1.2.0-rc1, protobuf 3.3.0.

I want to follow this tutorial.

But I think my problem can be evidenced more succinctly with this test.py:

import tensorflow as tf
regressor = tf.contrib.learn.LinearRegressor(feature_columns=[])

I cannot instantiate regressor. I get (full Traceback at the end):

google.protobuf.text_format.ParseError: 48:12 : Message type "tensorflow.AttrValue" has no field named "5".

Same goes in [21] of the tutorial. Same goes with python2 and python3. Same goes if I use LinearClassifier instead of LinearRegressor.

Any idea about what I am doing very wrong?

Traceback (most recent call last):

it's worked solution for it problem:

import _locale
_locale.setlocale(_locale.LC_NUMERIC, 'en_US.UTF-8')

python3.6, freebsd11

For me, running export LC_ALL=C worked.

Solution

Change your numeric locale settings to use a period (.) instead of a comma (,) as decimal separator.

Explanation

In the Google protobuf implementation, a locale dependent function is used to convert float to strings in FloatToBuffer().

This becomes a problem when information from a plugin library is extracted automatically.

In your case, it is the sequence

eye_separation: float = 2.5

at offset 0xa3b4 in emphasized _single_image_random_dot_stereograms.so

After being fed to the parser which uses FloatToBuffer(), this comes out:

attr {\n'
  name: "eye_separation"\n'
  type: "float"\n'
  default_value {\n'
    f: 2,5\n'
  }\n'
}\n'

and then the tokenizer (at google/protobuf/text_format.py) gets confused by the , in the default value and thinks that 5 is a separate field.

A bug report is live at GitHub and so this will hopefully get fixed, soon.
