guys

I'm trying to install gpu enabled version xgboost, and I followed exact step from [this instructions].(http://www.picnet.com.au/blogs/guido/2016/09/22/xgboost-windows-x64-binaries-for-download/)

git clone https://github.com/dmlc/xgboost.git xgboost_install_dir copy libxgboost.dll (downloaded from this page) into the xgboost_install_dir\python-package\xgboost\ directory cd xgboost_install_dir\python-package\ python setup.py install

And now after I run all those steps, I successfully installed xgboost into a egg folder called "xgboost-0.7-py3.5.egg", under which there is two subfolder "EGG-INFO" and xgboost, but there isn't a folder in my python site-packages called xgboost...like this:

  • /site-packages
  • /xgboost-0.7-py3.5.egg
  • /EGG-INFO

  • /xgboost

    I tried to copy paste the xgboost folder into site-package, but the benchmark program still fails. Did I miss something?

Here is the command log command.log

Environment info

Operating System: Windows 10 x64

Package used (python/R/jvm/C++): python 3.5.2 x64

xgboost version used: 0.7

Please help me! I just spend most all my money on nvidia 1080ti and I really hope that I can implement this...

If you don't have strict version requirements on xgboost,you can try this.

First, download binary file of xgboost from this page:https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#xgboost

For example, I use python 3.6 and windows 10 64bit version, so I choose this:

xgboost‑0.82‑cp36‑cp36m‑win_amd64.whl

you can choose the package accoring your environment.

$ pip install xgboost-0.82-cp36-cp36m-win_amd64.whl
$ python
>>> from xgboost import XGBRegressor

Enjoy it!
