HDF5 error back trace / Unable to open/create file '/tmp/tmprj6j0s'

[robotdude17]

Dear Sir,

I encounter the following problem when running your code

import pandas as pd, numpy as np, tensorflow as tf
import blogs_data #available at https://github.com/spitis/blogs_data

df = blogs_data.loadBlogs().sample(frac=1).reset_index(drop=True)

This is the error:

File "tables/hdf5extension.pyx", line 487, in tables.hdf5extension.File._g_new (tables/hdf5extension.c:5519)
tables.exceptions.HDF5ExtError: HDF5 error back trace

End of HDF5 error back trace
Unable to open/create file '/tmp/tmpV_vDTQ'

Would you have an idea what to do about it?

Thanks a lot!

Best regards,

Hannes

Same problem here, under Windows 10.

Edit: I managed to solve it by a suggestion made by nikhil dharap at R2RT - Recurrent Neural Networks in Tensorflow III - Variable Length Sequences tutorial.

This is the answer

This is the code update needed at file:

blogs_data/init.py

f2 = tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile(delete=False)

for data in dataList:
    f2.write(data)
df = pd.read_hdf(f2.name)
f2.close()

os.remove(f2.name)
