I have installed tensorflow for GPU using native pip using native pip to install tensorflow

While I use import tensorflow as tf with python3,

ImportError: libcublas.so.8.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I don't know how to solve this. Please help. I have crawling through google and stack overflow! I am using ubuntu17.04!

You are missing nvidia cuda or some parts of it. This error says that it can't find a lib called libcublas.so.8.0 wich is part of nvidias cuda. I don't know which Linux you have but if it is debian/ubuntu related you can try to install cuda like this:

sudo apt-get install nvidia-cuda-dev nvidia-cuda-toolkit

You also probably need this:

sudo apt-get install libcupti-dev

Note that you can also build tensorflow without GPU support see: https://www.tensorflow.org/install/install_sources
