Unable to import azureml-automl on DSVM

AM 20

I have Ubuntu 20.04(23.12.18), tried to import auto-ml library below but failed with messages below.

ERROR:prophet.plot:Importing plotly failed. Interactive plots will not work.

It seems "plotly" library imports "prophet" but plotly library does not exist in kernel.

following libraries seems to import "prophet" and fails.

・azureml-automl-core

・azureml-automl-runtime

・azureml-training-tabular

・mlflow

Is it OK to add plotly library on current kernel or downgrade/upgrade prophet library not to import plotly?

Hi @AM

Thank you for reaching out with your issue.

It seems like there's a dependency conflict occurring, particularly with the "plotly" library.

Try installing the plotly library using the following command:

!pip install plotly

If the above step doesn't work, try installing the prophet library without the plotly dependency using the following command:

!pip install fbprophet --no-dependencies

If you still face the issue, as part of debugging this dependency conflict, start by isolating your project environment. You can do this by creating a new virtual environment.

python3 -m venv myenv

Activate the virtual environment to ensure that your dependencies are contained within it.

source myenv/bin/activate

Then install Azure Machine Learning SDK.

pip install azureml-sdk

With the environment set up, attempt to run your script again:

script.py for your reference**:**

Here are the links to the official Azure documentation on how to create and manage environments in DSVM: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/machine-learning/how-to-use-environments

This might help in further debugging the install dependencies at your end.

I hope you understand. Thank you.
