[BUG] Colab failed to access data

[snitchjinx]

Hello! I'm executing the project in Google Colab. However, the data failed to download at: !source scripts/prepare_data.sh

Below is the error message:

# Download pretrained weights and SMPL data
!source scripts/prepare_data.sh

same error

this seems to be a gdown issue i had to manually download the zip and then remove the gdown link from prepare_data.sh

[snitchjinx]

That's a good solution, but for Colab uploading zip is too consuming.

you may please upgrade the gdown version to 4.4.0 in the requirements.txt file.

You can alternatively use Pydrive to download the file manually

Hi, I've come across the exact same issue and I have found the solution.

Replace the gdown command in scripts/prepare_data.sh with this:

gdown "https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1untXhYOLQtpNEy4GTY_0fL_H-k6cTf_r&export=download&confirm=t"

The &export=download&confirm=t part is used to accept the download of the large file.

Have a nice day :)
