I have the same issue.
I use
- Ubuntu 22.04 Server VM
- Python 3.10
I install it directly from the repo
- pip install git+https://github.com/aarnphm/whispercpp.git -vv
I think maybe something got changed on the main whisper.cpp repo which results in such a problem.
UPDATE:
I figured out the problem, I read a lot of logs and somehow the compiled part of the library is not compatible with Intel Xeon processors, it works fine on my other computers with i7 processors. when it starts to load the model it crashes and shows in the journalctl -xe invalid opcode, for some reason my Xeon processor is unable to understand some assembly instructions.
I had the same problem. Whenever I attempted loading a model - I got "Illegal instruction (core dumped)". Here I found the the issue could be in the CPU and it worked for me.
I got this error on a server with Xeon E5-2687W CPU (manufactured back in 2012) When I changed it to AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 5955WX (2022) - all worked fine.
If that doesn't help you, I also found that it could be a bug with numpy, try downgrading in to 1.19.4
