At My Wits End

[Kel-El-Earth1]

So, I've been doing this AI image generation thing for a few years now. For the last several months I've been playing around with SwarmUI and I like it. I've been using Reactor to occasionally turn my grand-kids into their favorite characters. A few days ago I nuked my install and started fresh since my previous install used symbolic links from Stable Forge and I now want to use SwarmUI exclusively. Unfortunately I've run into an error that all the Googling in the world hasn't helped me solve. I was getting an error that said inswapper_128.onnx was missing after I installed the FaceToolsExtension. So I followed the how-to by mcmonkey, uninstalled the extension, reinstalled it, inswapper was still missing so I download it manually and placed in the proper folder and used git clone as specified. Now I'm getting another error which is where you awesome folks come in. Side note, my 1st install faced no such issues. The error reads as follows;

ComfyUI execution error: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'seek'. You can only torch.load from a file that is seekable. Please pre-load the data into a buffer like io.BytesIO and try to load from it instead.

Help!

FaceTools is https://github.com/Quaggles/SwarmUI-FaceTools a separate repo, developed by @Quaggles

So where should I ask my question to get help? I just want reactor to work as it did before.

@Kel-El-Earth1 I just did a clean SwarmUI install and I can't reproduce that issue unfortunately.

The error sounds like it's related to model loading so hopefully it's just a corrupted model, the reactor node tries to autodownload the models every time you start ComfyUI but it often has issues and I can't disable that from the SwarmUI extension side unfortunately.

Firstly I'd try deleting the following models and downloading and installing them manually https://huggingface.co/datasets/Gourieff/ReActor/tree/main/models:

• "SwarmUI\dlbackend\comfy\ComfyUI\models\facerestore_models\"
• "SwarmUI\dlbackend\comfy\ComfyUI\models\insightface\"

(And make sure to delete the folder "SwarmUI\dlbackend\comfy\ComfyUI\models\insightface\models\" it should autodownload when you run face swap next).

Also try using the Comfy Workflow tab with the ReActor node and see if the error still occurs, try seeing if Face Restore without face swap works or if it's just face swapping that is broken.

If that doesn't fix it put the pastebin link from Server Tab -> Logs -> Pastebin here so I can see exactly which line in the ReActor code is throwing the error and that might give further hints.
