Getting an FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'inference.py'

[Nuwan1654]

Describe the bug Probably this is not a Bug, but when I try to deploy the Sagemaker Pytorch model, I am getting a FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'inference.py' error

To reproduce

1. Create 'my_model.tar.gz' file according to the instructions on this page
2. upload to s3 My folder structure as follow

.
├── best.pt
├── coco.yaml
└── code
    ├── common.py
    ├── experimental.py
    ├── general.py
    ├── inference.py
    ├── loss.py
    ├── requirements.txt
    ├── torch_utils.py
    └── yolo.py

4. Run predictor = pytorch_model.deploy(instance_type='ml.c4.xlarge', initial_instance_count=1)

Expected behavior successful deploy

Facing the same issue!

[hooNpk]

Is there anyone who solve this problem? I have a same issue

[kenny-chen]

I conjecture that you are compiling segamaker using a local environment. The reason for the issue is the absence of inference.py.

When executing pytorch_model.deploy(), it will initiate the Docker server image. Since I am using TensorFlow, it will launch the server image 763104351884.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/tensorflow-inference:2.11-gpu.

However, this image lacks "inference.py", resulting in a FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'inference.py' error.

Solution:

Firstly, create ./code/inference.py. Refer to the following link for the code: https://github.com/aws/sagemaker-tensorflow-serving-container/blob/master/test/resources/examples/test1/inference.py

import json
from collections import namedtuple

Context = namedtuple('Context',
                     'model_name, model_version, method, rest_uri, grpc_uri, '
                     'custom_attributes, request_content_type, accept_header')


def input_handler(data, context):
    if context.request_content_type == 'application/json':
        d = data.read().decode('utf-8')
        return d if len(d) else ''

    if context.request_content_type == 'text/csv':
        return json.dumps({
            'instances': [float(x) for x in data.read().decode('utf-8').split(',')]
        })

    raise ValueError('{{"error": "unsupported content type {}"}}'.format(
        context.request_content_type or "unknown"))


def output_handler(data, context):
    if data.status_code != 200:
        raise ValueError(data.content.decode('utf-8'))

    response_content_type = context.accept_header
    prediction = data.content
    return prediction, response_content_type

Next, deploy the model using the inference approach. The steps below demonstrate how to locally deploy the model using TensorFlow:

import os
from sagemaker.tensorflow import TensorFlowModel

model = TensorFlowModel(
    entry_point='inference.py',
    source_dir='./code',
    role=os.environ['AWS_ROLE'],
    model_data=f'{output}/model.tar.gz',
    framework_version='2.11'
)

predictor = model.deploy(
    initial_instance_count=1,
    instance_type='local_gpu',
)

1. The ./code/inference.py will be automatically loaded into the server image.
2. {output}/model.tar.gz will be automatically loaded as the local model.
3. The model.deploy() command will successfully initiate the server image.

whats the solution?

[kitty2121]

I think i've figured it out ; you MUST create the app.py file WITHIN here :

file browser pane, browse to "./lab1/packages/{account_id}-lab1_code-1.0/src/

Some tutorials say here: "In the file browser pane, browse to ./lab1/packages/{account_id}-lab1_code-1.0/. Find descriptor.json." BUT the right tutorial (https://catalog.workshops.aws/panorama-immersion-day/en-US/20-lab1-object-detection/21-lab1) correctly states to create and save the app.py txt file in ""./lab1/packages/{account_id}-lab1_code-1.0/src/" i.e. the SRC folder found in Lab 1.

Wrong version - https://explore.skillbuilder.aws/learn/course/17780/play/93251/aws-panorama-building-edge-computer-vision-cv-applications Right version - https://catalog.workshops.aws/panorama-immersion-day/en-US/20-lab1-object-detection/21-lab1

Also facing this issue. I think the docs on https://sagemaker.readthedocs.io/en/stable/frameworks/pytorch/using_pytorch.html#bring-your-own-model may be faulty as well?

I also encountered the same problem. I tried from notebook instance. Here is my implementation:

import sagemaker
from sagemaker.pytorch import PyTorchModel
from sagemaker.serverless import ServerlessInferenceConfig

sagemaker_session = sagemaker.Session()
role = sagemaker.get_execution_role()

model = PyTorchModel(
    entry_point='inference.py',
    role=role,
    model_data='s3://***/model.tar.gz',
    framework_version='2.1',
    py_version='py310',
)

serverless_config = ServerlessInferenceConfig(
    max_concurrency=1,
    memory_size_in_mb=3072,
)

deploy_params = {
    'instance_type': 'ml.t3.medium',
    'initial_instance_count': 1,
    'serverless_inference_config': serverless_config,
}

predictor = model.deploy(**deploy_params)

[Itto1992]

I solved this problem by changing how to create tar.gz file. The key point is to use tar command in the same directory as the model file like:

$ tar czvf ../model.tar.gz *
code/
code/requirements.txt
code/inference.py
model.pth

I failed when I run tar command in the parent directory of the model file:

$tar czvf model.tar.gz model
model/
model/model.pth
model/code/
model/code/requirements.txt
model/code/inference.py

As you can see, these results are different each other.
