AttributeError: module 'torch' has no attribute '__version__'

Question

I try to check if torch have been properly installed by script:

    import torch
    print(torch.__version__) 

and have the result: AttributeError: module 'torch' has no attribute 'version'

I've checked if torch is installed in my venv by:

    pip freeze

and it is installed(I tried to install as via conda as via pip as suggested at https://pytorch.org/):

• torch==1.7.1+cu110
• torchaudio==0.7.2
• torchvision==0.8.2+cu110

Environment:

• OS: Ubuntu 18.04
• GPU Geforce RTX 3070
• Driver version 460.39
• Cuda Toolkit V11.0.194
• Cudnn V8.0.5.39
• Python V3.6.9

Do not understand what's the problem

Answer 1

I was getting this error in Python jupyter notebooks, trying to run code after just installing packages and Microsoft compilation build tools. I found just restarting the "Python kernel" (python instance running in the background) fixed the problem.

Answer 2

I got the same issue, it was related to a a poorly installed version of torch.

Just pip uninstall torch and pip install torch==2.0.0+cu117 worked for me.

It should also work for another torch version.
