Error running run_dev.sh possible version dependency error caused by protobuf about isaac_ros_common

[millertheripper]

I had the same issue and I was able to solve it by changing the following lines in the Dockerfile.aarch64.base:

On line 74, add the command to upgrade PIP

RUN python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip

On line 90, set the numpy version to 1.19.4, since the latest numpy version will cause problems in later steps during docker build process

RUN wget https://nvidia.box.com/shared/static/p57jwntv436lfrd78inwl7iml6p13fzh.whl -O torch-1.8.0-cp36-cp36m-linux_aarch64.whl &&
apt-get update && apt-get install -y libopenblas-base libopenmpi-dev &&
python3 -m pip install numpy==1.19.4 &&
python3 -m pip install -U torch-1.8.0-cp36-cp36m-linux_aarch64.whl onnx

Good luck!

Our upcoming release of Isaac ROS Common will support Jetpack 5 DP (based on Ubuntu 20.04). The currently available version will likely run into a series of versioning mismatches as it was intended for Jetpack 4.6.1 (based on Ubuntu 18.04).

Thank you very much for your hard work.

When can we expect the upcoming release?

Also, is there any way to run isaac ros common on a regular PC with nvidia graphics card, running ubuntu 20.04, or that would also require ubuntu 18.04?

Thank you for making good use of it! We're working hard to get the release ready by end of June 2022. Yes, you can use run_dev.sh on Ubuntu 20.04 on an x86_64 system with a discrete NVIDIA GPU.

I have tried running run_dev.sh on a jetson agx, installed with Jetpack 4,6,1, and 4.6.2 - and still got the same error:

protobuf requires Python '>=3.7' but the running Python is 3.6.9
The command '/bin/bash -c wget https://nvidia.box.com/shared/static/p57jwntv436lfrd78inwl7iml6p13fzh.whl -O torch-1.8.0-cp36-cp36m-linux_aarch64.whl && apt-get update && apt-get install -y libopenblas-base libopenmpi-dev && python3 -m pip install -U numpy torch-1.8.0-cp36-cp36m-linux_aarch64.whl onnx' returned a non-zero code: 1

~/isaac_ros-dev/src/isaac_ros_common

In my jetson agx /etc/apt/preferences, I have the following statements that disables updating of docker, otherwise you get another error, but this was resolved in the forums.

Package: docker.io
Pin: version 20.10.2*
Pin-Priority: 1001

Package: containerd
Pin: version 1.5.2*
Pin-Priority: 1001

It appears to me it might be a issue with torch. On the other hand, it runs on x86_64 pc. Any ideas, how to get this going on an agx?

Best Regards.

We haven't seen this here but you could comment out that line in "docker/Dockerfile.aarch64.base" and proceed without Torch which will cause problems if you're using isaac_ros_triton.

The latest Isaac ROS Common run_dev.sh uses pre-built Docker images so you don't have to build all of this yourself anymore. The PyTorch included is not CUDA-enabled (using public version) which will be fixed in an upcoming release.
