"ImportError: numpy.core.multiarray failed to import" occurs when import caffe

[jishaoming]

I can run the minist example correctly, but when I want to import caffe in python, I meet this error. But when I import caffe the second time, it successfully imported.... This error happens only the first statement " import caffe "
It's about this...

Looks like your numpy library isn't built correctly and/or your paths are incorrect. You should search around for a solution to the problem described by the runtimeerror message. I don't think this is a problem with caffe.

Also, the Issues page is not the right place to ask for installation help. From https://github.com/BVLC/caffe/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md:

Please do not post usage, installation, or modeling questions, or other requests for help to Issues.
Use the caffe-users list instead. This helps developers maintain a clear, uncluttered, and efficient view of the state of Caffe.

I got the same issue. Have you got any solution?

Probably you have two versions of numpy in /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib. Try to remove one.

Met similar error. Have you solved?

This can happen (at least on Windows) if you linked pycaffe against some version of numpy, say 1.10, and import numpy loads another version, say 1.9.

Have you solved this problem. I've got same Error on Ubunutu 14

I got the same error on windows 10 using winpython-64bit-2.7.10.1 (with numpy 1.9 by default). I was able to successfully address the problem by changing to miniconda and installing the numpy 1.12.0. I guess if I install numpy 1.10+ should also work with winpython.
