Torch not compiled with CUDA enabled (in anaconda environment)

I am new to pytorch and I am trying to understand how to enable CUDA in an anaconda environment.

I have created my conda env with the following commands

conda create --name env_name
conda activate env_name
conda install -c conda-forge -c pytorch python=3.7 pytorch torchvision cudatoolkit=10.1 opencv numpy pillow

Then I run the following file:

import torch
import torchvision

print("PyTorch Version: ",torch.__version__)
print("Torchvision Version: ",torchvision.__version__)

if torch.cuda.is_available():
    print("if torch.cuda.is_available() returns TRUE")
else:
    print("if torch.cuda.is_available() returns FALSE")

torch.zeros(1).cuda()

And I get

ython sources/torch_cuda_setup_check.py 
PyTorch Version:  1.10.0
Torchvision Version:  0.10.0a0
if torch.cuda.is_available() returns FALSE
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "sources/torch_cuda_setup_check.py", line 12, in <module>
    torch.zeros(1).cuda()
  File "/home/fabrizioschiano/anaconda3/envs/deeplabv3finetuning/lib/python3.7/site-packages/torch/cuda/__init__.py", line 208, in _lazy_init
    raise AssertionError("Torch not compiled with CUDA enabled")
AssertionError: Torch not compiled with CUDA enabled

Could you help me understanding how to install a version of torch which has CUDA enabled?

I am sure that my system has a GPU.

More details about my system can be found below.

I am on Ubuntu 20.04

The command:

nvcc --version

gives the following output

nvcc: NVIDIA (R) Cuda compiler driver

The command:

gives the following output

I think I found the culpript but still I cannot find a solution to my problem

When I run

conda install -c conda-forge -c pytorch python=3.7 pytorch torchvision cudatoolkit=10.1 opencv numpy pillow

I installed the following packages (among others)

  python             conda-forge/linux-64::python-3.7.12-hb7a2778_100_cpython
  python_abi         conda-forge/linux-64::python_abi-3.7-2_cp37m
  pytorch            conda-forge/linux-64::pytorch-1.10.0-cpu_py37hf3cc979_0
  pytorch-cpu        conda-forge/linux-64::pytorch-cpu-1.10.0-cpu_py37h718b53a_0
  qt                 conda-forge/linux-64::qt-5.12.9-hda022c4_4

As you can see, it seems that the versions of pytorch installed are CPU only. Correct?

Command:

conda install -c conda-forge -c pytorch python=3.7 pytorch torchvision cudatoolkit=10.1 opencv numpy pillow

I tried to remove pytorch from my anaconda environment with:

conda remove pytorch pytorch-cpu

then I reinstalled pytorch with the instructions from here:

which led me to the following command:

conda install pytorch torchvision torchaudio cudatoolkit=11.3 -c pytorch

This is the output of this command which seems to be still installing pytorch with cpu and not for CUDA.

conda install pytorch torchvision torchaudio cudatoolkit=11.3 -c pytorch

Do you have any suggestions?

In the end, I switched from Conda to virtualenv and it worked at the first try.

I created my virtualenv with virtualenv virtualenv_name

Then I did

workon virtualenv_name

then, I installed pytorch as it is specified on the official pytorch website (but selecting pip instead of conda) as package manager (Start Locally | PyTorch).

conda install pytorch torchvision torchaudio cudatoolkit=11.3 -c pytorch

This worked for me and now I have a CUDA-enabled version of pytorch on my machine.
