Cannot import tensorflow hub

[Bannigo]

Hello Guys,

I am facing an issue regarding the import of TensorFlow hub. Following are the errors which are posted in the terminal. The version of tensorflow, I am using is 2.6, and the version of tensorflow-hub is 0.12.0. I installed both of them using pip install. I have a bit of urgency in completing my project, and I would be really thankful for your help.

I got exact same problem. I'm looking for help.
Python 3.79
tensorflow: 2.6
tensorflow_hub: 0.12

[SageRalph]

Same problem.

Python 3.9.2
pip 21.2.4
tensorflow 2.6.0
tensorflow_hub 0.12.0

Also occurs when using the docker image tensorflow/tensorflow:latest if tensorflow is updated to 2.6.0.

Also occurs when using tensorflow_hub 0.11.0.

Works fine with tensorflow 2.5.1 in both environments

[ZheZhang10]

I reinstalled tensorflow, tensorflow_hub, degraded to tensorflow 2.5.0 , tensorflow_hub 0.12.0. The problem disappeared.

The TF team is currently working on a fix. In the meantime, please try downgrading tensorflow-estimator:

pip install -U tensorflow-estimator==2.6.0

@Bannigo

Could you respond to the above comment by @WGierke
also please refer to the similar issue, and let us know if this helps.Thanks

pip install -U tensorflow-estimator==2.6.0

This is now giving the error: AlreadyExistsError: Another metric with the same name already exists.

[WGierke]

Please try downgrading keras:

pip install -U keras==2.6.0

The TF team just released v2.7.0 (https://pypi.org/project/tensorflow/). In preparation for that, other libraries had to release their new versions 2.7.0 first (tensorflow-estimator, keras, ...). It occasionally happened that when installing TF 2.6, some dependencies were installed with their new version 2.7.0. This led to issues since the combination of TF 2.6 and version 2.7 of these libraries is not compatible. @FindTheConstraint please tell us whether downgrading keras helped.

Hi everyone,
Thank you so much for your inputs. I had to go offline due to a few circumstances. But the solution works now. I have downgraded TensorFlow.

@Bannigo
Closing this issue as it is resolved.Please feel free to reopen if this still exists.Thanks

!pip install --upgrade tensorflow-hub
In jupyter notebook it worked.
Either downgrade the tensorflow or upgrade the tensorflow-hub.
