Description
I am trying to install xgboost's python wrapper in OSX 10.11.6 with python3. Firstly, I did:
user@MacBook-Pro-de-User-2:~$ brew install gcc --without-multilib
==> Using the sandbox
==> Downloading https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/gcc/gcc-6.2.0/gcc-6.2.0.tar.bz2

==> Patching

==> ../configure --build=x86_64-apple-darwin15.6.0 --prefix=/usr/local/Cellar/g
==> make bootstrap
==> make install
🍺 /usr/local/Cellar/gcc/6.2.0: 1,357 files, 242.5M, built in 69 minutes 18 seconds
Then, when I proceed to install xgboost with pip3, I get the following:
user@MacBook-Pro-de-User-2:~$ pip3 install xgboost

Then I tried to build it as the documentation states:

Then, I tried to build as follows:

-bash: cd: xgboost: No such file or directory
cp: make/config.mk: No such file or directory
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
Any idea of how to install correctly xgboost?... a month ago I've installed xgboost with pip3 and I did not face the above issues.

Apparently this worked for OSX:
However, I would like to know if there is an easier way to install it, any suggestion guys?.
phunterlau commentedon Aug 24, 2016
@alonsopg the current
pip
installation requiresgcc-5
orclang-omp
which both can be installed viabrew
. It was done before the recent instruction update. Since major Mac OS X users now usegcc-6
, I will update the next version to gcc-6, meanwhile, please install from github as you have compiledsamuela commentedon Oct 26, 2016
+1 also came across exactly this issue. Very tricky to figure out. Also note that clang-omp is no longer a brew package:
phunterlau commentedon Oct 26, 2016
@samuela do you want to try
brew install --with-clang llvm
sinceclang-omp
is movedJoeNyland commentedon Feb 21, 2017
@phunterlau I still cannot get
pip install xgboost
working on Mac 10.12.3I'm getting:
I've tried:
How are we meant to install this from
PyPi
on Mac 10.12? Installation from source is not a solution.GnoDGnaF commentedon Mar 11, 2017
@JoeNyland maybe you need :
Maybe you can get some ideas from https://github.com/dmlc/xgboost/issues/463.
JoeNyland commentedon Mar 13, 2017
@d2code Thanks, but I still get the same error message after
brew install cmake
:GnoDGnaF commentedon Mar 14, 2017
@JoeNyland You can try to install xgboost from source , not by pip.
JoeNyland commentedon Mar 14, 2017
@d2code I know I can install from source, but I need to install from pip. I'm trying to get to the bottom of why I can't install from pip.
JoeNyland commentedon Apr 6, 2017
@evanuk Thanks for your suggestion. Unfortunately I'm getting the same error message as before even with your command above 😕
JoeNyland commentedon Apr 6, 2017
Success! 🎉
I found this here:
Bearing that in mind, I tried this and it allows me to install from pip!
I have no idea why this works but
brew install gcc --without-multilib
didn't.I can't help but think other users will fall into this trap and waste time trying to work out what is actually going wrong. Hopefully this workaround works for them but I'd prefer to see a more reliable installation routine from the pip package 🤞

@JoeNyland's solution worked for me also. Thanks!!

@schen57 It's documented in several places that the
pip install xgboost
method of installation only works with GCC 5.Please
brew install gcc@5
and retry the installation.https://github.com/dmlc/xgboost/blob/master/python-package/README.rst

#1501 (comment)
@alonsopg @phunterlau I wonder if this issue can be closed now? It's getting pretty big and out of control as there's a solution to the original problem that the OP reported. The long term fix for this is to allow the
pip install xgboost
method to work with up to date GCC versions, but I feel this is better handled in a separate issue focussed specifically on that. What do you think?phunterlau commentedon Dec 3, 2017
Yes, agreed. The pip installation was made for the golden stable version of xgboost so a stable version of gcc was chosen. The pip installation will soon use the official release and get precompiled binary as planned.

Although I installed gcc 5 (with brew), the xgboost build still used the LLVM version of gcc (7 in my case). To get the build to use gcc 5 I did:
and this worked for me.

The following worked for me to get the newest version of XGBoost into Anaconda painlessly:

Thank you @davidread your solution worked after struggling for hours. Godsend!!!
JingyuanXing commentedon Jan 27, 2018
In addition to @davidread 's solution, if pip install doesn't work for you, try the second line as:
env CC=gcc-5 CXX=g++-5 pip3 install xgboost
This should work!
chetankshetty commentedon Feb 8, 2018
Thank you @davidread. After struggling for hours with gcc-7 and --without-multilib option (which by the way has been disabled in gcc), I struggled some more with gcc-5 and pip until I finally found your solution! Thanks again.

@cacoderquan I had the same issue. Don't know if you've had this sorted yet (didn't read through all the comments) but I was able to install by first running the build.sh file in the terminal and then running setup.py in the python-package folder.
thinslicer commentedon Feb 19, 2018
Thank you for all the help above, and especially to @davidread, your method worked for me as well, how do we make sure that we have multi-threading? Thanks in advance guys

@okomarov Your solution for installing xgboost worked for me. Thanks a bunch!
drewszurko commentedon Mar 12, 2018
@davidread Thanks a lot, your method worked for me!
