I am trying to install lasagne and theano on windows 7. I already have cuda installed and I am able to run devicequery and bandwidth test binaries successfully.

Reference wiki: https://github.com/Lasagne/Lasagne/wiki/From-Zero-to-Lasagne-on-Windows-7-%2864-bit%29#nvidia-gpu-support-cuda

I have cuda 8.0 and VS 14.0 installed on my pc.

Upon running

cd C:\Lasagne\code
nvcc -o cuda_check.exe cuda_check.c --compiler-bindir="C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin\amd64" --cl-version=2015 -lcuda -lcudart -lcublas

I get C:\Program not recognized error.

C:\Lasagne\code>nvcc -o cuda_check.exe cuda_check.c --compiler-bindir="C:\Progra

m Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin\amd64" --cl-version=2015 -lcud

a -lcudart -lcublas

nvcc warning : The 'compute_20', 'sm_20', and 'sm_21' architectures are deprecat

ed, and may be removed in a future release (Use -Wno-deprecated-gpu-targets to s

uppress warning).

cuda_check.c

'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

operable program or batch file.

We have released a new version of Theano that don't need nvcc for the GPU anymore. We also have conda packages you can try with:

conda install -c rdonnelly theano

uninstall Theano first. I'm not sure if this will install Theano 0.9beta1 or 0.9rc1. Maybe the windows conda packages for rc1 aren't ready yet.

We have released a new version of Theano that don't need nvcc for the GPU anymore.

But then you'll need libgpuarray? In any case, the installation guide at "From Zero to Lasagne" should work.

Upon running

cd C:\Lasagne\code
nvcc -o cuda_check.exe cuda_check.c --compiler-bindir="C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin\amd64" --cl-version=2015 -lcuda -lcudart -lcublas

I get C:\Program not recognized error.

Can you add --verbose to the nvcc call? This should give you some more details. Does it change anything if you put all of the compiler-bindir in quotation marks, as "--compiler-bindir=C:\Program Files (x86)\..."? I think it worked the way I put it in the tutorial, but if it sees "C:\Program" as a separate entity, it seems the quotation marks got lost somewhere.

Best, Jan

the old back-end is still in Theano. So you can use the dev version with the old back-end for now. But not for very long.

I tried your suggestions, I get following output,

C:\Lasagne\code>nvcc -o cuda_check.exe cuda_check.c "--compile-bindir=C:\Program
Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin\amd64" --cl-version=2015 -lcuda
-lcudart -lcublas --verbose
nvcc fatal : Unknown option '-compile-bindir'

That's because you wrote "--compile-bindir" instead of "--compiler-bindir". Sometimes the error really is that simple :)

But from your second output, it seems if you omit --compiler-bindir, it finds the correct directory anyway:

#$ COMPILER-BINDIR=C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0/VC/bin/am
d64
#$ erase C:/Users/aniketb/AppData/Local/Temp/tmpxft_00001244_00000000-6_cuda_che

aniketb/AppData/Local/Temp/tmpxft_00001244_00000000-8_cuda_check.obj"
'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
# --error 0x1 --

But I honestly don't know what's going on here. It looks like nvcc tries exactly the right thing (but I don't have easy access to a Windows box to compare the output). I don't see where it goes wrong. What happens if you directly give the path to cl.exe:
nvcc -o cuda_check.exe cuda_check.c "--compiler-bindir=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin\amd64\cl.exe" --cl-version=2015 -lcuda -lcudart -lcublas --verbose

If your patience is up, you can still install Ubuntu in a VM or as a dual-boot OS. If you plan to dig deeper into deep learning, this will save you a lot of trouble in the long run!

Best, Jan

Hi,

I was able to solve this problem by setting an environment variable instead of mentioning path directly, but I don't see cuda_check.exe generated anywhere.

C:\Lasagne\WinPython\scripts>cd ../../code

C:\Lasagne\code>nvcc -o cuda_check.ext cuda_check.c --compiler-bindir=$VSPATH -l

cudart -lcublas --verbose

nvcc warning : The 'compute_20', 'sm_20', and 'sm_21' architectures are deprecat

ed, and may be removed in a future release (Use -Wno-deprecated-gpu-targets to s

uppress warning).
