[Samarth2]

Hi team,

i was working on YOLO v3 openvino model and while executing the code, i got the below error,

i tried solving the error but didn't get any solutions.

kindly help solving the below error.

ImportError: Check 'versions_compatible' failed at ../../repos/openvino/src/bindings/python/src/pyopenvino/pyopenvino.cpp:93:
OpenVINO Python version (2024.1.0-15008-f4afc983258-releases/2024/1) mismatches with OpenVINO Runtime library version (2024.1.0-33-20d7ce923d1). It can happen if you have 2 or more different versions of OpenVINO installed in system. Please ensure that environment variables (e.g. PATH, PYTHONPATH) are set correctly so that OpenVINO Runtime and Python libraries point to same release.

Hi Samarth2,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

From your error message, I noticed that the code uses the old OpenVINO™ 1.0 API ("from openvino.inference_engine import IENetwork, IECore"). For your information, OpenVINO™ 1.0 API is discontinued starting from OpenVINO™ 2024.0 release. You can find more information in the Discontinued in 2024.0 subsection under the Deprecation and Support section on the 2024.0 Release Notes.

We recommend that you modify the code to use the new OpenVINO™ 2.0 API to resolve the errors. You can refer to the OpenVINO™ 2.0 API Inference Pipeline for guides on how to implement the new API.

On another note, regarding the OpenVINO™ version compatibility, which distribution did you use to install the OpenVINO™ 2024.1.0 version?

Regards,

Megat
