no module named tensorflow.contrib

Question

I have this problem when I import tensorflow.contrib.slim

import tensorflow.contrib.slim as slim

i get this error message

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/toshiba/PFE/DocFace-master/src/tflib.py", line 28, in <module>
import tensorflow.contrib.slim as slim

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tensorflow.contrib'

tensorflow is correctly installed and i found some solutions that said that the file name is tensorflow so it causes the problem but that is not the case in here

Answer 1

You probably have TensorFlow version 2.* installed, but tf.contrib.slim is TensorFlow 1.15 code. You can check here how to migrate your existing code to tensorflow 2.*.

If you instead want to keep your code, you can downgrade to TensorFlow by typing pip install tensorflow==1.15 into your command-line to downgrade to TensorFlow 1.15.
