When I run"python -m unittest seq2seq.test.pipeline_test",I got this error.Could someone tell me how to solve this problem?

[tangzhenyu]

Is this framework not support the version of tensorflow0.12.1?

[dennybritz]

Yes, you need Tensorflow 1.0.

[tangzhenyu]

alright,thanks

[sheerun]

I get the same error for tensorflow 1.2.1

[shawnnylxx]

same error in tensorflow 1.2.1
it is OK when downgrade to tensorflow 1.0.1

[David-Levinthal]

broken in R1.3rc0

[David-Levinthal]

I believe this can be fixed by modifying seq2seq/seq2seq/contrib/seq2seq/helper.py per the instructions in:
https://github.com/google/seq2seq/pull/254/files

#from tensorflow.contrib.distributions.python.ops import bernoulli
#from tensorflow.contrib.distributions.python.ops import categorical
try:
from tensorflow.python.ops.distributions import bernoulli
from tensorflow.python.ops.distributions import categorical
except:
from tensorflow.contrib.distributions.python.ops import bernoulli
from tensorflow.contrib.distributions.python.ops import categorical
seems to work for me now with 1.3 rc0 and R1.2

[wandabwa2004]

@David-Levinthal is right. Just replace these lines in seq2seq/helper.py:

from tensorflow.contrib.distributions.python.ops import bernoulli
from tensorflow.contrib.distributions.python.ops import categorical

with these:

from tensorflow.python.ops.distributions import bernoulli
from tensorflow.python.ops.distributions import categorical

I'm running tensorflow 1.2

[jhancock1975]

I just ran into the same thing using tensorflow 1.3.0. Should I create a pull request, or has someone already created one?

[chenchiwei]

I got the same problem in tensorflow 1.4.1

[NajeebTyson]

same problem with tensorflow 1.5.0

[enockipp]

same problem with tf 1.5.0
