error: legacy-install-failure

[ishandutta04]

I am installing the setup on an EC2 instance with a 16 GB GPU. I tried with VS Studio 16.11 and 16.9.4 but the error persists.

I get the following error when running the command pip install --global-option="--no-networks" git+https://github.com/NVlabs/tiny-cuda-nn/#subdirectory=bindings/torch imageio_download_bin freeimage on Windows 10:

Hi,

As mentioned in the error message the tinycudann package failed to install due to compilation errors. There's a few version conflicts between MSVC/CUDA versions that sometimes causes these errors, so I would recommend upgrading both CUDA and visual studio to the very latest versions (and make sure that CUDA_PATH points to the right version).

There's also an older issue that might give some useful info: https://github.com/NVlabs/nvdiffrec/issues/46, https://github.com/NVlabs/tiny-cuda-nn/issues/110#issuecomment-1159309395

On Ubuntu 22.04, reverting from gcc-11 and g++-11 to gcc-10 and g++-10 solved this problem for me.
