Hello, first time using TAO Toolkit, I’m trying to train a custom model for object detection on aerial imagery from a drone. I took the dataset from [here](https://universe.roboflow.com/igor-na/dota-v2.0---easy/dataset/7) in TFRecord format, and followed the instructions from the [tutorial](https://docs.nvidia.com/tao/tao-toolkit/text/object_detection/detectnet_v2.html#conversion-to-tfrecords-detectnet-v2), however when I run the command ` tao detectnet_v2 train -k custom_model -e ~/specs.txt` I get the following error:

```auto
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "</usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/iva/detectnet_v2/scripts/train.py>", line 3, in <module>

IndexError: list index (0) out of range

```

Only solution I found was in [this thread](https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/error-when-training-detectnet-v2-resnet34-on-tfrecord-file/230464), but when I tried uploading the dataset to CVAT it stuck at 81%. Does anyone know what else I can try?

This is my spec file:

```auto
# Sample model config for to instantiate a resnet18 model with pretrained weights and freeze blocks 0, 1
# with all shortcuts having projection layers.

  arch: "mobilenet_v2"

Could you share the log when you generate tfrecords files?

Unfortunately I don’t have logs, I downloaded them directly from the Roboflow website, and I don’t see a way to get any logs from there

**There is no update from you for a period, assuming this is not an issue anymore. Hence we are closing this topic. If need further support, please open a new one. Thanks**

You can refer to [detectnet\_v2 html.](https://docs.nvidia.com/tao/tao-toolkit/text/object_detection/detectnet_v2.html#pre-processing-the-dataset)  
It provides command `dataset_convert` to generate tfrecords files.
