I am trying to install CUDF from its source file as given in the page (https://github.com/rapidsai/cudf/blob/branch-0.15/CONTRIBUTING.md#setting-up-your-build-environment )

After the following few steps, I cannot complete it by doing the cmake

Build and install libcudf after its dependencies. CMake depends on the nvcc executable being on your path or defined in $CUDACXX.

$ cd $CUDF_HOME/cpp  
$ mkdir build
$ cd build

then it says

-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX set to the install path for your libraries or $CONDA_PREFIX if you're using Anaconda, i.e. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/install/path or-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$CONDA_PREFIX# -DCMAKE_CXX11_ABI set to ON or OFF depending on the ABI version you want, defaults to ON. When turned ON, ABI compatibility for C++11 is used. When OFF, pre-C++11 ABI compatibility is used.

cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$CONDA_PREFIX -DCMAKE_CXX11_ABI=ON

Then it showing errors like the following

cmake: /usr/local/lib/libcurl.so.4: no version information available (required by cmake)

What should I do with this step?

P.s : my anaconda path is like /home/anaconda3/ and cudf environment path is like /home/anaconda3/envs/cudf_dev

  • `/home/anaconda3/envs/cudf_dev/` is definitely NOT a compiler: it is a **directory**, but compiler is a **file** (executable). And check that your build directory is **writable** by the current user: The first CMake error is about inability to write a file `/home/CUDF/cudf/cpp/build/CMakeFiles/3.16.3/CompilerIdCUDA/CMakeCUDACompilerId.cu`. – Tsyvarev Jul 24 '20 at 10:29

Please note that cudf 0.15 does not support CUDA 10.0 and python 3.6.

It seems to be a CUDA/permissions issue.

Did you install/ build your conda env as root and now you are trying to run build as a user?

What is your output for nvidia-smi?

Also if you have the CUDA toolkit installed and the env's cuda version matches the CUDA version shown in nvidia-smi. Then i would recommend that you try running ./build.sh command from /home/CUDF/cudf/ folder. Running ./build.sh works for me.

In case the above solutions do not work you can always file an issue in the cudf repo (https://github.com/rapidsai/cudf/issues) and please provide the output of file print_env.sh.

You can also install the nightly version of cudf-0.15 by using the following command :

conda install -c rapidsai-nightly -c nvidia -c conda-forge -c defaults cudf=0.15 python=3.7 cudatoolkit=10.1

You need to update the cudatoolkit version depending on the CUDA toolkit version you have installed in your system.
