Only problem which I had and I guess I wouldn’t have been able to solve it blindly debugging if it was not for @ashivani is that a pip package (opencv-python==4.1.2.30) seems to have some problem with aicrowd servers (and not in my machine) and you need to include a file apt.txt with the following contents:
libglib2.0
libsm6
libxext6
libxrender1
libfontconfig1
another “minimal” debugging guideline is in which stage you get your error?
Does your image build successfully? (For me it’s always been like that but if not then probably there’s some shit going on with your environment files - the ones listed on the first link)
Does it fail immediately after evaluation started? If so, it’s likely an issue with your code, or your imports.
Does it FAIL after a while has past since evaluation started? If so, it’s likely you have some problem with reading corrupted images.
Does it ABORT after a while has past since evaluation started? If so, it’s likely it’s taking too long, remember to use GPU.
Again, I don’t have any privileged knowledge of how aicrowd internally works, so it would be nice for an admin to add more information to the subject, but I suspect those are the most usual stones people meet along the path.
Sorry for the late reply, I wasn’t home and I wanted to post a proper reply with all the details, although I don’t know for sure whether those are your problems I hope it can help anyone in the future.
If I can help you with anything else let me know, I believe submitting is truly something that should be made easier.
frustration is the word that describes my participation in this challenge. I spent around 1h to build the actual model but days to make a successful submission. Participation should definitely be more straightforward. A must is to enable “debug” with instant error logs. Besides
submitting the same code sometimes failed and sometimes went through.
sometimes I would get timeout error after 10h and sometimes not
it doesn’t make sense to me why the evaluation is so slow when we should have <40 000 images
it also doesn’t make sense to me to organize a challenge and then remain silent
@shivam Hi, thanks for that. Git lfs is working for me but what is git lfs migrate for ? Where must I store the real model ? Is there something to adapt in the submission for that ?
Hi git lfs migrate is for transferring any older commit to start using lfs. This is useful in case you have lots of older commit (intended/unintended) and want those files to migrate to LFS based in future.
@amapic Your master branch contains the aicrowd-api but you submission branch does not. The environment.yml file in submission-v0.22 does not contain the api.
