RuntimeError: Could not open file caffenet/deploy.prototxt

Question

I am getting this error in google colab

RuntimeError: Could not open file caffenet/deploy.prototxt

this is the code cell it is running on

net = caffe.Net("caffenet/deploy.prototxt",
                 "caffenet/bvlc_reference_caffenet.caffemodel",
            caffe.TEST)

have already searched for a solution here

RuntimeError while opening deploy.prototxt

and here

RuntimeError while opening deploy.prototxt

but they do not solve the issue, might be related to google colab itself

Answer 1

I ran into the same problem. I figured out I was using the wrong caffemodel. I listed down all the files using !ls and it showed different caffemodels. I was earlier mentioning 735 but it had no such file. Except the ones with 270. Changes the name and it worked!

Answer 2

change the name of your file to prototxt.txt and it should work
