Dreambooth isn't working (google colab)

[mdlieber99]

both gemini and ChatGPT think there is an issue with the det.py script. It fails in the "model download" section whether I give it a path or a link. given the other recent comments it looks like this might be a problem on a1111 as well. Here is the error when I give it the path:

Detecting model version...

ok - I added !pip install protobuf==3.20.3
before the model download step and now it seems to be working

[vadar007]

Yup, that fixed it for me (Issue #2950)! How did you pin down the need to install this additional piece/version of software?

So chatGPT said it was about the det.py script. I noticed that others were raising issues on this page about a1111 not working and that was also about the det.py script. Someone offered this solution on that page so I tried it here and it worked.

Could you please help me putting the line, where exactly did you add it? I am getting the same error and adding it doesn't help. Thanks!

I inserted as the first line in the colab Dependencies code:

!pip install protobuf==3.20.3
from IPython.utils import capture
import time
import os

You still get some dependencies warning messages but it runs....

That is amazing, it works! Perhaps I was doing something wrong, but adding these to the beginning of the Model Download step didn't help. Thank you!

Is dreambooth still working for you guys? It broke again yesterday for me but no one else has brought up an issue

[vadar007]

Yep, been using it constantly today. What is the error message(s) you are getting? Mind you, I am running off a copy of the colab so if the source colab itself was modified, I probably won't see it.

Thanks, Vadar. Are you using protobuf 3.20.3 still or did you downgrade to 3.19.0? Matthew D.
