I tried installing tensorflow 1.12 rather than 1.13 which is not compatible for my use case so based on this link https://docs.nvidia.com/deeplearning/dgx/install-tf-xavier/index.html

using command

pip3 install --extra-index-url https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/redist/jp/v42 tensorflow-gpu==1.12.0+nv18.12

But im getting following error

Looking in indexes: https://pypi.org/simple, https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/redist/jp/v42
Collecting tensorflow-gpu==1.12.0+nv18.12
  Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement tensorflow-gpu==1.12.0+nv18.12 (from versions: 1.13.1+nv19.3, 1.13.1+nv19.4)

Hi,

Currently, we only provide TensorFlow v1.13.1 for Jetson Nano.
Please install it with the command shared here:

Thanks.

So is it impossible to install 1.12?
Because most libraries don’t support latest 1.13 and we are stuck!

Please update this documentation as it is misleading as it mentions Jetson Nano and wasted my time

Hi,

We don’t have official package of TensorFlow v1.12.
But you still can build it on your own to unblock the work.

The document you mentioned is shared by different Jetson platform…
TensorFlow v1.12 is available for Jetson Xavier.

Thanks.

The following example exists: TensorRT Object Detector: GitHub - NVIDIA/object-detection-tensorrt-example: Running object detection on a webcam feed using TensorRT on NVIDIA GPUs in Python. that asks to have TensorFlow 1.12.0
WARNING: To create TensorRT plug-in nodes, use the create_plugin_node function instead.
NOTE: UFF has been tested with TensorFlow 1.12.0. No other versions are guaranteed to work.
WARNING: The version of TensorFlow installed on this system is not guaranteed to work with UFF.
UFF Version 0.6.3
What solution can be given? What inconsistency.

Hi,

The page you follow is for desktop user.

Are you using the Jetson platform?
If yes, please install TensorFlow from this page:
