ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'numpy.core._multiarray_umath' (While installing TensorFlow)

Question:

I am following this tutorial to install TensorFlow(https://www.tensorflow.org/install/pip), but in the last command:

python -c "import tensorflow as tf; tf.enable_eager_execution(); print(tf.reduce_sum(tf.random_normal([1000, 1000])))"

I get this result:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'numpy.core._multiarray_umath'
ImportError: numpy.core.multiarray failed to import

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 980, in _find_and_load
SystemError: <class '_frozen_importlib._ModuleLockManager'> returned a result with an error set
ImportError: numpy.core._multiarray_umath failed to import
ImportError: numpy.core.umath failed to import

I have already installed numpy as you can see:

pip3 install numpy
Requirement already satisfied: numpy in c:programdataanaconda3libsite-packages (1.15.4)

So why do I get this error message and how can I fix it on Windows 10?

I upgraded numpy to 1.16.1 version and tried again the above command:

python -c "import tensorflow as tf; tf.enable_eager_execution(); print(tf.reduce_sum(tf.random_normal([1000, 1000])))"

and got this new result:

ensure that you’re using python 3.x by running it as

python3 -c "import tensorflow as tf; tf.enable_eager_execution(); print(tf.reduce_sum(tf.random_normal([1000, 1000])))"

I was having numpy 1.16.2 version but it was giving same error then i tried to install 1.16.1 and it worked for me.

Upgrade the numpy to solve the error

pip install numpy --upgrade

You need to force the upgrade numpy to the latest version.

pip install 'numpy==1.16' --force-reinstall

Hope this helps.

I just upgraded my numpy from 1.14.0 to 1.17.0 by the following command on Ubuntu 18.10.

sudo python3.5 -m pip install numpy –upgrade

No import error then.

Try this:
pip install –upgrade –force-reinstall numpy

there maybe multiple reasons for this error, thus, I would go through the solutions one by one; hopefully one of the steps will solve your problems:

  1. Update your Numpy or reinstall it.
  2. Check your interpreter directory (go to setting>project>python interpreter )and the Numpy package directory(in your terminal use this command pip show Numpy). These two directories should be similar, if they are not similar go to (setting>project>python interpreter>Add interpreter>show all> show interpreter path) and then add the package directory.
  3. If none of above solutions worked, go to (setting>project>python interpreter>Add interpreter> add local interpreter) and change it from virtual environemnt to conda environemnt.
