basic example crashing

[semihcanturk]

After pip installing ViZDoom as instructed, I'm getting the following error when running the basic.py example:

(base) Semihs-MBP:python semo$ python basic.py
libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type boost::interprocess::lock_exception: boost::interprocess::lock_exception
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "basic.py", line 99, in <module>
    game.init()
vizdoom.vizdoom.ViZDoomErrorException: Unexpected ViZDoom instance crash.

No crash log was generated.

Versions

vizdoom-1.1.8
macOS 10.14.6
Python environment

How can I get around this? Thanks in advance!

What is your version of boost (and prefereably all libs that are needed by vizdoom) ?

[semihcanturk]

boost 1.71.0
cmake 3.14.3
clang 11.0.0
sdl2 2.0.10
julia 1.2.0

@semihcanturk Hi, semihcanturk! I met the same problem, have you solved it? Can you give me some advice?

@hzt-1999 can you provide more information on what are you trying to run (code) and what is your system (os, version, python version, vizdoom version, etc).

OS: Ubuntu20.04 LTS
python: 3.6.15
vizdoom: 1.1.11
basic.py: https://github.com/mwydmuch/ViZDoom/blob/master/examples/python/basic.py

Errors:
libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type boost::interprocess::lock_exception: boost::interprocess::lock_exception

Thank you!

Hmm that one is tricky, as it seems to stem from the Boost library :s. I assume you installed the dependencies with the command from tutorials (the long list of apt get installs)? If not, could you try doing it with that?

If that fails, you could try the conda way which installs boost libraries from conda repos.
