Fastai/fastbook on Sagemaker Studio Lab

Part 1 (2019)

Hi all,

Is there a guide to get Fastai and fastbook working on Fastai/fastbook on Sagemaker Studio Lab? Is Sagemaker Studio Lab compatible with fastai/fastbook currently?

When I try to create the fastbook environment within the Sagemaker Studio Lab terminal I get the following error:

Pip subprocess error:

How are you creating the fastbook environment?

3

I tried both conda env create -f environment.yml in a terminal tab and via the gui of studio lab, both gave the same error.

You can try pip installing fastai without creating conda env

I just did “!pip install fastbook” and was able to run a sample learning session for pets no problem. in a CPU runtime though.

Has anyone been able to get a GPU runtime? I’ve been trying for two days and it just simply tells me to “try again later”
