ImportError: DLL load failed: A dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed

[z575]

I get an error when I import pycolmap==3.10.0 ImportError: DLL load failed: A dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed

[sarlinpe]

We need more information:

• was pycolmap built from source or installed with PyPI wheels?
• detailed system specifications
• exact steps to reproduce the issue
• full error log

Thank you!

[z575]

1. Installed through PyPI wheels（pip install pycolmap ）;
2. The operating system is win11, and the processor is Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-1035G1 CPU @ 1.00GHz 1.19 GHz;
3. I have also used other computers to install pycolmap (3.10.0), all of which have errors when importing (import pycolmap), and the versions of python are 3.8.2 and 3.12.0
4. The error log is:Traceback (most recent call last): File "d:\Program Files\Python312\Lib\runpy.py", line 198, in _run_module_as_main return _run_code(code, main_globals, None, ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "d:\Program Files\Python312\Lib\runpy.py", line 88, in run_code exec(code, run_globals) File"c:\Users****.vscode\extensions\ms-python.debugpy-2024.10.0-win32-x64\bundled\libs\debugpy\adapter/../..\debugpy \launcher/../..\debugpy_main.py", line 39, in cli.main() File "c:\Users*.vscode\extensions\ms-python.debugpy-2024.10.0-win32-x64\bundled\libs\debugpy\adapter/../..\debugpy \launcher/../..\debugpy/..\debugpy\server\cli.py", line 430, in main run() File "c:\Users*.vscode\extensions\ms-python.debugpy-2024.10.0-win32-x64\bundled\libs\debugpy\adapter/../..\debugpy \launcher/../..\debugpy/..\debugpy\server\cli.py", line 284, in run_file runpy.run_path(target, run_name="main") File "c:\Users*.vscode\extensions\ms-python.debugpy-2024.10.0-win32-x64\bundled\libs\debugpy_vendored\pydevd_pyd evd_bundle\pydevd_runpy.py", line 321, in run_path return _run_module_code(code, init_globals, run_name, ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "c:\Users*.vscode\extensions\ms-python.debugpy-2024.10.0-win32-x64\bundled\libs\debugpy_vendored\pydevd_pyd evd_bundle\pydevd_runpy.py", line 135, in _run_module_code _run_code(code, mod_globals, init_globals, File "c:\Users*.vscode\extensions\ms-python.debugpy-2024.10.0-win32-x64\bundled\libs\debugpy_vendored\pydevd_pyd evd_bundle\pydevd_runpy.py", line 124, in _run_code exec(code, run_globals) File "c:\Users*\Desktop****\test.py", line 4, in import pycolmap ImportError: DLL load failed while importing pycolmap: A dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed。 Thank you!

Hei,

I'm also trying to install pycolmap trough pip install. the installation seems to be sucesfull but when importing i get the following error

ImportError: DLL load failed while importing pycolmap: A dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed.

are there any other specific requirements? (I've tried multiple times to uninstall and reinstall too)

Facing the same issue!

[spomichter]

Also getting this error. Win11, Python 3.12.7. PyPi wheels.

[andysfd]

same, any fixes?

[z575]

You can try lowering the version of pycolmap

[andysfd]

worked with manuel download of whl and downgraded python version (3.11)

[spomichter]

worked with manuel download of whl and downgraded python version (3.11)

This did not work for me despite downgrading to python 3.11.

ImportError: DLL load failed while importing pycolmap: A dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed.

We have Windows wheels for both 3.10 and 0.6.1, does any of them work? Could you also try the wheels at HEAD that are available here?

One way to debug this is the following (I don't have a Windows machine so I cannot run this myself):

1. Download a Windows wheel from PyPi: https://pypi.org/project/pycolmap/#files
2. Unzip the .whl file
3. Run dumpbin /dependents pycolmap.cp312-win_amd64.pyd
4. Check which one of the dependencies cannot be found in pycolmap-3.10.0.data/platlib/

2. Unzip the .whl file

4. Check which one of the dependencies cannot be found in pycolmap-3.10.0.data/platlib/

I tried the .\pycolmap-3.10.0-cp311-cp311-win_amd64.whl wheel at HEAD and it failed with the same issue

[norangehere]

I fix this problem by running conda install -c conda-forge pycolmap

[sarlinpe]

Unfortunately I cannot help without the information from these debug steps:

1. Download a Windows wheel from PyPi: https://pypi.org/project/pycolmap/#files
2. Unzip the .whl file
3. Run dumpbin /dependents pycolmap.cp312-win_amd64.pyd
4. Check which one of the dependencies cannot be found in pycolmap-3.10.0.data/platlib/

@sarlinpe I hoe this helps to resolve this issue.
