What Operating System(s) are you seeing this problem on?

Windows

dlib version

19.24.0 19.24.1 19.24.2 19.24.3 19.24.4

Python version

3.7 3.8 3.9 3.10 3.11 3.12

Compiler

MSVC 19

Expected Behavior

import dlib without errors
dlib.DLIB_USE_CUDA returns TRUE

Current Behavior

Environment

win11
Cmake 3.29.6
CUDA 12.5
cuDNN 9.2

I have tested my CUDA installation in different ways (including testing in PyTorch). The CUDA works fine.

python setup.py install error

If I run python setup.py install, the terminal says the dlib is installed successfully. And the terminal logs:

-- Looking for cuDNN install...
-- Found cuDNN: C:/Program Files/NVIDIA/CUDNN/v9.2/lib/12.5/x64/cudnn.lib
-- Enabling CUDA support for dlib.  DLIB WILL USE CUDA, compute capabilities: 50
-- Configuring done (15.7s)
-- Generating done (0.5s)

However, the dilb is NOT indeed installed successfully.

When I use import dlib in a .py file, the terminal shows error: ImportError: DLL load failed while importing _dlib_pybind11: not found, as is described in #2977

pip install dlib --verbose error

If I run pip install dlib --verbose, the terminal says CUDA was found but your compiler failed to compile a simple CUDA program so dlib isn't going to use CUDA.

However, the dlib is indeed installed.

I can use import dlib in a .py file without error. But dlib.DLIB_USE_CUDA returns false.

Steps to Reproduce

run pip install dlib --verbose

or

run python setup.py install

following http://dlib.net/compile.html

Anything else?

I have tested using Python 3.7/3.8/3.9/3.10/3.11/3.12 and dlib 19.24.0/19.24.1/19.24.2/19.24.3/19.24.4, all these tests come with the same problem.

Hard to say, but something about your compiler or cuda install is broken. Which is out of control of dlib.

Do this to find out more:

cd dlib/cmake_utils/test_for_cuda/
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
cmake --build .

and see why that test program fails to build. It's just a trivial cuda program so you have to figure out why your computer is not capable of building it. All dlib's installer is doing is running that test build and if it fails it prints that message about not being able to use cuda.

Nothing seems to go wrong.

Hard to say what's wrong with your system. But do pip uninstall dlib and ensure it is really uninstalled. Then do python setup.py install and see if it works now.

Unfortunately, the same error mentioned occurs.

ImportError: DLL load failed while importing _dlib_pybind11

Unfortunately, the same error mentioned occurs.

ImportError: DLL load failed while importing _dlib_pybind11

I commented on a closed issue of the same thing. I happened to find the fix.

I found the fix for this. At least on windows for me.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62255730/dlib-importerror-in-windows-10-on-line-dlib-pybind11-import-dll-load-failed

This can be solved by copying the cudnn64_7.dll (available here: https://developer.nvidia.com/cudnn) into the %CUDA_PATH%/bin directory (probably something like this: C:\Program Files\NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit\CUDA\v10.1\bin)

I am using the latest from below

Visual Studio 2022
Cmake
TensorRT 10.4 GA for Windows 10, 11, Server 2019, Server 2022 and CUDA 12.0 to 12.6 ZIP Package
cuDNN 9.4.0
CUDA Toolkit 12.6 Update 1

Install the CUDA toolkit first and reboot. After install the cuDNN.
The path should have these already in it from the install
C:\Program Files\NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit\CUDA\v12.6\bin
C:\Program Files\NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit\CUDA\v12.6\libnvvp
C:\Program Files\NVIDIA\CUDNN\v9.4\bin\
C:\Program Files\NVIDIA\CUDNN\v9.4\

With system variables like these
CUDA_PATH C:\Program Files\NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit\CUDA\v12.6
CUDA_PATH_V12_6 C:\Program Files\NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit\CUDA\v12.6

Now in the directory C:\Program Files\NVIDIA\CUDNN\v9.4

Move all the 12.6 files from C:\Program Files\NVIDIA\CUDNN\v9.4\bin\12.6 to C:\Program Files\NVIDIA\CUDNN\v9.4\bin
Move all the 12.6 files from C:\Program Files\NVIDIA\CUDNN\v9.4\include\12.6 to C:\Program Files\NVIDIA\CUDNN\v9.4\inlcude
Move all the 12.6 files from C:\Program Files\NVIDIA\CUDNN\v9.4\bin\12.6 to C:\Program Files\NVIDIA\CUDNN\v9.4\bin

If you're using tensorrt as well then you want to extract the zip and move all files and folders to C:\Program Files\NVIDIA\CUDNN\v9.4

Then you want to copy the file like the stackoverflow says (for me it was this)

This can be solved by copying the cudnn64_9.dll (from C:\Program Files\NVIDIA\CUDNN\v9.4\bin) into the %CUDA_PATH%/bin directory (probably something like this: C:\Program Files\NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit\CUDA\v12.6\bin)

Then

git clone https://github.com/davisking/dlib.git
cd dlib
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DDLIB_USE_CUDA=1 -DUSE_AVX_INSTRUCTIONS=1 -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="C:/Program Files/NVIDIA/CUDNN/v9.4"

You should see

I highly appreciate your detailed steps! It works!

Based on my different combinations of configurations, these steps are crucial after the installation of CUDA and cuDNN:

  1. Move files from subfolders to parent folders.

Move all the 12.6 files from C:\Program Files\NVIDIA\CUDNN\v9.4\bin\12.6 to C:\Program Files\NVIDIA\CUDNN\v9.4\bin
Move all the 12.6 files from C:\Program Files\NVIDIA\CUDNN\v9.4\include\12.6 to C:\Program Files\NVIDIA\CUDNN\v9.4\inlcude

    Run the code below:

cd dlib
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DDLIB_USE_CUDA=1 -DUSE_AVX_INSTRUCTIONS=1 -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="C:/Program Files/NVIDIA/CUDNN/v9.4"

cmake --build . --config Release

python setup.py install

But actually, I did not do this. I did the following:

Firstly, I added the system variable CMAKE_PRIFIX_PATH whose value is "C:/Program Files/NVIDIA/CUDNN/v9.4".

Secondly, reboot.

Thirdly, run 'python setup.py install' from the source directory.

I searched the internet and found that the bizarre error may be related to the upgrade of Nvidia's cuDNN. When users install cuDNN 8.x - 1.x which are provided as zip files, the tutorials existing on the internet tell users to move the files in the bin, include, lib folders of cuDNN to the corresponding bin, include, lib folders of CUDA. However, the cuDNN (Graphical Installation) greater than 9.0.0 will create a subfolder such as 12.6. And the system variables automatedly generated do not lead to the right filepath. I tried to configure the system variables. It failed.

Consequently, I think the Tarball installation guide and your suggestions are correct.

Yeah I am knew to all this and I found out if making the python whl you dont need to do the cmake. But I guess it does not hurt lol
