I am trying to install tensorflow on cluster where I don't have sudo access, but I am receiving this error:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/nsoufi2s/anaconda3/lib/python3.5/site-packages/tensorflow/python/pywrap_tensorflow.py", line 41, in from tensorflow.python.pywrap_tensorflow_internal import * File "/home/nsoufi2s/anaconda3/lib/python3.5/site-packages/tensorflow/python/pywrap_tensorflow_internal.py", line 28, in _pywrap_tensorflow_internal = swig_import_helper() File "/home/nsoufi2s/anaconda3/lib/python3.5/site-packages/tensorflow/python/pywrap_tensorflow_internal.py", line 24, in swig_import_helper _mod = imp.load_module('_pywrap_tensorflow_internal', fp, pathname, description) File "/home/nsoufi2s/anaconda3/lib/python3.5/imp.py", line 242, in load_module return load_dynamic(name, filename, file) File "/home/nsoufi2s/anaconda3/lib/python3.5/imp.py", line 342, in load_dynamic return _load(spec) ImportError: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by /home/nsoufi2s/anaconda3/lib/python3.5/site-packages/tensorflow/python/_pywrap_tensorflow_internal.so)

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Failed to load the native TensorFlow runtime.

It would help if you specify on which platform you are trying to install Tensorflow. The error you encouter is because the compiled tensorflow libraries are dynamically linked against glibc 2.14 and your platform does not support this. – amo-ej1

You can create a virtual environment in your home directory using the following commands. You will not need sudo access.

conda create -n tensorflow python=3.5
source activate tensorflow
pip install tensorflow
