AssertionError: No super class method found for "_instances_from_cache_file"

[YuchenZeng]

Hi,

Thank you for the excellent work. I follow the steps by setting up the environment and install all requirements exactly. I want to download the scierc dataset but have the following problem.
I ran these command exactly:

conda create --name dygiepp python=3.7
pip install -r requirements.txt
conda develop .
bash ./scripts/data/get_scierc.sh

This is the problem I have:

Traceback (most recent call last):

I tried emnlp-2019 branch but I still got the same problem. Have you ever had to this problem before? Thanks!

Hi Yuchen,

It's possible that AllenNLP 2.0+ breaks things. I changed requirements.txt to require allennlp==1.1.0. If things still aren't working for you, try reinstalling allennlp and allennlp_models and see if things work. If that doesn't fix it, feel free to reopen.

Hi,
I got the same problem when I tried to use dygiepp training on ace05 event dataset.
For some reason (my GPU is 3080, which does not support pytorch 1.6 and allennlp 1.1.0), I need to use latest version of pytorch and allennlp, how can I solve this problem? Thanks!

[dwadden]

Unfortunately, I can only offer support using the versions of packages specified in the requirements.txt file. You could find a different GPU that is compatible, or - if you have the time - I'd also welcome a pull request that updates the code base for the latest Pytorch and AllenNLP versions.

Sorry I can't help more.
