bug: Doesn't work on installing on Windows #86
Comments
|
I have not tested on windows. can you try |
|
I tried that as well, I aslo tried building it on windows using either blazer o pip. Neither work. I tried both using the blazer.exe available inside ./tools folder and installing blazer manually. Here's what I get with |
|
I see. I don't have access tih Windows machine atm to test this out. But I think it might have to do with bazel setup on Windows. |
|
Has anyone been able to get past this? It's almost definitely from the bazel project building |
|
Windows is not supported atm. Suggest to use WSL to run Linux |
same issue, and I try pywhispercpp on my windows, it works |

|
Failed to build whispercpp |
|
any one success built in windows? |
so it means ,there will be no way to use lib in windows? |
|
Is there any update on this? Would someone be able to jump on a call so we can try to fix this together? I would do it myself but don't have knowledge on the repository. In my opinion incompatibility with Windows is a big problem. |
|
We can jump on a call, but I currently don't have a windows box setup. |
|
Would you be able to meet up tomorrow or this weekend? I'm in EST time |
|
Sure, I'm also on EST |
|
Should I message you on something else, so we don't just spam this issue? |
|
yes feel free to shoot me a email |
|
Is there any update on this? Is it possible to run this on windows? |
|
Any updates on the issue? It still doesn’t work on windows |
|
we should find how to break the issue in minor tasks, for now, we know that the .so files are not valid win32 files, that, for some reason are built within the package. then, once we have the bidnings, make the automated test to ensure that this project doesn't break in the future. then update the files and enable new users to build within setup.py or the newest python standard pytoml definitions. etc. |
|
can we review where are the commands defined to build each dll/so files? |
|
the current bazel script won't work, since the mirrors doesn't show any mirror for bazel 6.0.0, we should update the script to use 7.0.0, since it's the latest version, and will be maintained for at least 6 months

This is a script based on the bash file, also, you should change Keep in mind this file requires .bazelversion to be set to 6.1.1 to work and to be honest, it's not the best script for these needs. $ErrorActionPreference = "Stop"
$requiredVersion = [Version]"7.0"
$currentVersion = $PSVersionTable.PSVersion

This script requires version 7 from powershell, otherwise it might fail due to some expressions introduced in later versions. |

the documentation should add that anaconda is required to compile binaries using bezel!!!! which is annoying. as far as i looked in the build file, it seems to require python_abi, a package that's only available in anaconda. i'm still not sure what does python_abi do, but it's required for bazel :/ |
Describe the bug
Trying to use this port on windows.
I tried building it on windows as well in many ways but all of them leading to errors with dead ends so problems for another time.
I used it on WSL2 ubuntu environment in the same machine following the same steps and it works. So the problem is most certainly the OS.
To reproduce
Error: None (reason: No module named 'whispercpp.api_cpp2py_export')
when running this line of code
Whisper.from_pretrained(params.model, './models')
Expected behavior
For the package to be usable on windows
Environment
python 3.9.3
Windows 11
