Invalid syntax error while importing tensorflow in python3.7.0 #20690

tiehexue · 2018-07-11T10:06:33Z

System information

OS Platform and Distribution (e.g., Linux Ubuntu 16.04):
MacOS High Sierra 10.13.5
TensorFlow installed from (source or binary):
pip3
TensorFlow version (use command below):
1.9.0
Python version:
3.7.0
Exact command to reproduce:
import tensorflow as tf

Describe the problem

when import tensorflow in python3 prompt, it says "SyntaxError: invalid syntax".

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/tensorflow/init.py", line 22, in

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Source code / logs

line 114, 115, 150 of pywrap_tensorflow_internal.py has "async" as parameter which seems to be a keyword.
After changed to "async1", importing tensorflow works.

def TFE_ContextOptionsSetAsync(arg1, async1):
return _pywrap_tensorflow_internal.TFE_ContextOptionsSetAsync(arg1, async1)
TFE_ContextOptionsSetAsync = _pywrap_tensorflow_internal.TFE_ContextOptionsSetAsync

async and await are reserved keywords in python 3.7

murthyteja · 2018-07-28T23:03:26Z

Any update on this issue?

mhyousefi · 2018-08-03T11:42:06Z

This is really annoying and unacceptable! How can we resolve this issue?

blured · 2018-08-05T11:29:03Z

As explained above, you can edit the last file of the trace where the error occur :
/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/tensorflow/python/pywrap_tensorflow_internal.py
and find anywhere the variable async is used and replace it with async1 so its not a python 3.7 keyword anymore. you will find those "async" variables on line 114, 115, 150
So this (for instance):
def TFE_ContextOptionsSetAsync(arg1, async):
becomes this:
def TFE_ContextOptionsSetAsync(arg1, async1):
Hope this helps !

mhyousefi · 2018-08-05T14:22:07Z

The error is indeed resolved after your proposed change. Thanks @blured

Manish-rai21bit · 2018-08-07T17:04:21Z

All you need to do is change the argument "async" to something else in "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/tensorflow/python/pywrap_tensorflow_internal.py" in the function definition and return..

hi guys i have the same problem, i just did install tensor to mac sierra 12.10.6 im using python3 and

thank you @tiehexue i did update right in pywrap_tensorflow_internal.py async for async1 , and woks !! ... the lastone was on line 155 ,

thank you so much !

AFAgarap · 2018-09-03T01:40:23Z

Actually, there are four lines with async: 114, 115, 154, and 155.

dimidd · 2018-09-04T09:49:39Z

This worked for me. YMMV (modify the path).
sudo sed -i 's/async/async_py3/g' /usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/tensorflow/python/pywrap_tensorflow_internal.py

codedsun · 2018-09-05T06:49:26Z

This worked for me, but if you are changing the

def TFE_ContextOptionsSetAsync(arg1, async):
becomes this:
def TFE_ContextOptionsSetAsync(arg1, async1):

then also please change the arguments in the return type, as they are also mentioned with the 'asyc'.

yifeif · 2018-09-05T19:56:27Z

I believe this should be fixed by #21202 (thanks to @bstriner) if you build from source. But looks like there won't be a python 3.7 pypi package for 1.11, cc @gunan.

souravb65 · 2018-09-10T07:25:53Z

I'm facing the same issue for Python 3.6.6. Is Python 3.6.6 not supported as well?

mikeyj777 · 2018-09-22T03:44:45Z

per the instructions above, after changing the "async" argument and returned variable names to async1, python quits on importing tensorflow.

BTUJACK · 2018-10-15T12:38:39Z

per the instructions above, after changing the "async" argument and returned variable names to async1 as folowing:
def TFE_ContextOptionsSetasync(arg1, async1):
return _pywrap_tensorflow_internal.TFE_ContextOptionsSetasync(arg1, async1)

def TFE_ContextSetasyncForThread(arg1, async1):
return _pywrap_tensorflow_internal.TFE_ContextSetasyncForThread(arg1, async1)

There is another problem for me:

I've installed tensorflow using pip and encountered with module not found error. Based on some of the previous conversations I've uninstalled it and re-installed tensorflow via conda. The installation was successfull but it produces Syntax Error which have been attached below.

any idea?

So after changing async to async1 , I am also facing the same problem
"ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_pywrap_tensorflow_internal'"

Any solution?

Python 3.9.2

Locate the pywrap_tensorflow_internal.py. It's generally in python3.7/site-packages/tensorflow/python/ Open any text editor (I prefer atom). Find async on the mentioned lines and replace it with async1. Dont forget to take a backup of pywrap_tensorflow_internal.py in case something goes wrong.

…
