Issues installing PyTorch 1.4 - "No matching distribution found for torch===1.4.0"

Question

Used the install guide on pytorch.org on how to install it and the command I'm using is

pip install torch===1.4.0 torchvision===0.5.0 -f https://download.pytorch.org/whl/torch_stable.html

But it's coming up with this error;

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement torch===1.4.0 (from versions: 0.1.2, 0.1.2.post1, 0.1.2.post2)

ERROR: No matching distribution found for torch===1.4.0

Is this even a me-related issue? Can other people use this command?

Pip is installed and works for other modules, Python 3.8, CUDA version 10.1, Windows 10 Home 2004

Answer 1

Looks like this issue is related to virtual environment. Did you try recommended installation line in another/new one virtual environment? If it doesn't help the possible solution might be installing package using direct link to PyTorch and TorchVision builds for your system:

pip install https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu101/torch-1.4.0-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl  pip install https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu101/torchvision-0.5.0-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl 

Answer 2

In the future, I would recommend using the installation widget on the PyTorch website.

It fixed this issue for me by extending the command with -f as follows:

pip install torch===1.6.0 torchvision===0.7.0 -f https://download.pytorch.org/whl/torch_stable.html

Answer 3

check your python version, my version is python 3.8.2 and it can't find a torch version matched the py version. And I use a 3.7.6 now, I suppose the version below 3.8 would be fine
