Where do I find the .whl file to install it?

[Centurax]

Hi I am kind of new to all this and basically this feels like a stupid question.

To give you context I am attempting to get Dreambooth working with Stable Diffusion and I get this:

Your version of xformers is 0.0.16rc425.
xformers >= 0.0.17.dev is required to be available on the Dreambooth tab.
Torch 1 wheels of xformers >= 0.0.17.dev are no longer available on PyPI,
but you can manually download them by going to:
https://github.com/facebookresearch/xformers/actions
Click on the most recent action tagged with a release (middle column).
Select a download based on your environment.
Unzip your download
Activate your venv and install the wheel: (from A1111 project root)
cd venv/Scripts
activate
pip install {REPLACE WITH PATH TO YOUR UNZIPPED .whl file}
Then restart your project.

I tried using the setup file and got this:

(venv) ...\stable-diffusion-webui\venv\Scripts> pip install ...\xformers-main\setup.whl
WARNING: Ignoring invalid distribution -rotobuf (...stable-diffusion-webui\venv\lib\site-packages)
WARNING: Requirement '...\stable-diffusion-webui\scripts\xformers-main\setup.whl' looks like a filename, but the file does not exist
ERROR: setup.whl is not a valid wheel filename.
WARNING: Ignoring invalid distribution -rotobuf (...\stable-diffusion-webui\venv\lib\site-packages)
WARNING: Ignoring invalid distribution -rotobuf (...\stable-diffusion-webui\venv\lib\site-packages)
WARNING: Ignoring invalid distribution -rotobuf (...\stable-diffusion-webui\venv\lib\site-packages)

here is the question where is the .whl file to install it?

Also are there are any steps I am unaware of to get this working?

Hi,
You can go there:
https://github.com/facebookresearch/xformers/actions/workflows/wheels.yml

Then select the latest completed job (for example this one), then download the zip file that corresponds to your setup (for instance ubuntu-22.04-py3.10-torch1.13.1+cu117)

[danthe3rd]

What is your python version (python --version) and your pytorch version (python -c "import torch; print(torch.__version__)")?

[Centurax]

Python Version = Python 3.10.6

pytorch version just came back with:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'torch'

[danthe3rd]

I believe you should reach out to whoever wrote this tutorial you are linking in the original post, as the rest will depend on your pytorch version, and I'm not sure which one you should use for that project

Unfortunately I am still a little lost with all this, I have a better idea what to look for now, however, I still have no idea where to download it from.

1. Go here

https://github.com/facebookresearch/xformers/actions/workflows/wheels.yml

2. Click the top entry (in this case ptxas: Build with O2 instead of O3):

3. Scroll down and click the correct version according to your project (most likely windows-2019-py3.10-torch1.13.1)

4. Open the zip and extract the .whl file to the root of your project (in my case H:\automatic1111)

5. Open a terminal (or cmd) in the root of your Stable Diffusion folder (in my case H:\automatic1111) and do:

cd venv/scripts
./activate

6. CD back to your root folder:

cd ..
cd ..

7. Install whl:

pip install xformers-0.0.19.dev523-cp310-cp310-win_amd64.whl

8. Start WEB-UI and look for this message:

[+] xformers version 0.0.19.dev523 installed.

Example startup

Happy generating 😃

thanks :)

Hi, it does't seem to work for me. I do everything as suggested but it keeps telling me no xformers.

[curiouspers]

I was also fighting this, but on latest versions all you need to do is start automatic1111 with argument --xformers
It will install everything that is needed

Hi, it does't seem to work for me. I do everything as suggested but it keeps telling me no xformers.

Did you add the --xformers argument in the webui-user.bat file?
