Issue with tappas Installation in Hailo AI Software Suite

General
1

Hello,

I am attempting to install the Hailo AI Software Suite (Version 2024-10). During the installation, when I run the command:

$ ./hailo_ai_sw_suite_2024-10.run -- install-tappas

I encounter an error while trying to install the tappas, which prevents the installation from finishing. The specific error message is:

ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.
Failed. Exited with status 1. See suite_installation.log

Hello @meil198309,

It looks like the error happened because the ninja ran into trouble while trying to set up the Python environment, particularly when it was determining and creating the user site-packages directory. On top of that, the TAPPAS_WORKSPACE environment variable was missing, and it defaulted to a path that might not be valid for you.

One possible fix could be to install the Hailo AI Software Suite first, and then proceed with installing TAPPAS.

You can start by installing the Hailo AI Software Suite (check out the wiki here: Hailo AI Software Suite Installation) and then install TAPPAS (check out the wiki here: TAPPAS Installation).

Let me know if that works for you!

The TAPPAS_WORKSPACE environment message is a mere warning and is not the cause of the installation failure. Could you look at the log suite_installation.log and see if more details are available ?
Please make sure that you have installed all the prerequesites listed in: 2025-01 | Hailo
