Faceswap Forum

Hello!
I'm trying to get started with faceswap but I'm running into some problems.
I'm not so used with the cmd line but have tried to google the answer.
When im trying to open the graphical interface for faceswap with the command "python faceswap.py gui" I get the following error message:

"Setting Faceswap backend to NVIDIA
06/26/2020 19:43:33 INFO Log level set to: INFO
Warning! HDF5 library version mismatched error
The HDF5 header files used to compile this application do not match
the version used by the HDF5 library to which this application is linked.
Data corruption or segmentation faults may occur if the application continues.
This can happen when an application was compiled by one version of HDF5 but
linked with a different version of static or shared HDF5 library.
You should recompile the application or check your shared library related
settings such as 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH'.
You can, at your own risk, disable this warning by setting the environment
variable 'HDF5_DISABLE_VERSION_CHECK' to a value of '1'.
Setting it to 2 or higher will suppress the warning messages totally.
Headers are 1.10.4, library is 1.10.5"

As the last line says, the headers are 1.10.4 and library is 1.10.5.

I understand that i have a newer library and probably convert to a older version but im not quite sure how to do that. Should i just reinstall a older version or is ther a cmd command for it?
I have tried some commands to install the older version but I get other errors like: "The following packages are not available from current channels: - 1.10.4."

Does anyone know what to do?

Thanks in advance!

This is a strange one, the installer should have installed compatible versions. If you installed with the installer, first step would be to delete the environment and install again. If that doesn't work, we can troubleshoot your install and get valid versions installed, but it may take some work to get it right.

Thank you for the quick reply!

I did remove the enviroment and reinstalled everything and you are right that it installs the right verison.

Can the problem be that i have previously downloaded a later version and it has priority?
I can not recall downloading it but it might follow with some other programs.

I found the solution! The HDF5 version 1.10.5 was created by visual studio 2017.

The fix for my issue was to run the commands:
"pip uninstall h5py"
"pip install h5py"

Now I can open the graphical interface without problems
