/usr/bin/python: No module named torch.distributed

I’m using torch in WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux). I installed torch and torchvision, but still got error when I tried to use torch.distributed:
/usr/bin/python: No module named torch.distributed

Maybe it doesn’ support WSL?

I tried on WSL2 with cuda.
It supports torch.distributed.

Please type wsl -l -v to check your wsl status

It works on WSL2 with Windows CPU machine too

Thank you @mszhanyi . I’m using WSL 1 :frowning:

WSL1 doesn’t support GPU.
But I think if you install pytorch cpu version, the torch.distributed should be available too.

Did you build PyTorch with USE_DISTRIBUTED=1?
