Virtual environment installations can't run joint_monkey.py about isaacgymenvs HOT 7 OPEN

from isaacgymenvs.

I am using pyenv-virtualenv and having the same issues. Have you solved the issue?

from isaacgymenvs.

I haven't--I've moved to looking at other simulation platforms for my needs for now, and will revisit this if there's action from the authors towards better packaging.

I figured out how to solve it.
The following installation commands resolved the issue.

ISAAC_VENV_NAME='Isaac_gym_env'
ISAACGYM_PATH='./isaacgym'
GYM_EXAMP_PATH='./IsaacGymEnvs'

CONFIGURE_OPTS=--enable-shared pyenv install 3.7.10
pyenv virtualenv 3.7.10 $ISAAC_VENV_NAME
pyenv activate $ISAAC_VENV_NAME

pip3 install -r ./requirements.txt # Install dependencies. 
pip3 install -e "$ISAACGYM_PATH/python"
pip3 install -e "$GYM_EXAMP_PATH"

@kiwi-sherbet Do you have a CUDA GPU in that machine? It's not clear to me whether this thing is supposed to be able to run CPU-only or not.

from isaacgymenvs.

Yes, I am using CUDA 11.2. I have not tried running it with CPU only.

I think that does it, though I won't really know until later; see below. The directory $PROJECT_DIR referenced below contains isaacgym and IsaacGymEnvs.

I ran the following on our lab's Ubuntu 18.04 server with an RTX 2080ti and driver 455.45.01 with CUDA 11.1 per nvidia-smi:

git clone https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv.git ~/.pyenv
cd ~/.pyenv && src/configure && make -C src
echo 'export PYENV_ROOT="$HOME/.pyenv"' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'command -v pyenv >/dev/null || export PATH="$PYENV_ROOT/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'eval "$(pyenv init -)"' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'export PYENV_ROOT="$HOME/.pyenv"' >> ~/.profile
echo 'command -v pyenv >/dev/null || export PATH="$PYENV_ROOT/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.profile
echo 'eval "$(pyenv init -)"' >> ~/.profile
git clone https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv-virtualenv.git $(pyenv root)/plugins/pyenv-virtualenv
cd "$PROJECT_DIR"
ISAAC_VENV_NAME='Isaac_gym_env'
ISAACGYM_PATH='./isaacgym'
GYM_EXAMP_PATH='./IsaacGymEnvs'
sudo apt-get install libffi-dev  # Actually, first I did the next 3 commands without this, and the first pip install failed on pycollada==0.6. So, I had to
#   pyenv deactivate
#   pyenv uninstall 3.7.10/envs/Isaac_gym_env 
#   pyenv uninstall 3.7.10
# and then redo the pyenv install 3.7.10
CONFIGURE_OPTS=--enable-shared pyenv install 3.7.10
pyenv virtualenv 3.7.10 $ISAAC_VENV_NAME
pyenv activate $ISAAC_VENV_NAME

Activating the env here failed; it instructed me to restart the terminal.

pip3 install -r ./requirements.txt # This is my own file, but whatever.
pip3 install -e "$ISAACGYM_PATH/python"

Finally, I did the test script, as python isaacgym/python/examples/joint_monkey.py. This time, it failed due to OOM on the GPU, which is to be expected because we have a visitor using all the GPU RAM as he usually does. I'll ask him nicely to get off and then try again later. But it's probably fixed now?
