I am trying to follow the tutorial from

https://docs.tvm.ai/tutorials/autotvm/tune_conv2d_cuda.html#sphx-glr-tutorials-autotvm-tune-conv2d-cuda-py

When i run the code I get the following error:

tuner = autotvm.tuner.XGBTuner(task)
tuner.tune(n_trial=20,
measure_option=measure_option,
callbacks=[autotvm.callback.log_to_file(‘conv2d.log’)])

I am wondering if this is a bug in tvm or some missing package.

Thanks

Hi, I believe this might be a bug, the way to reproduce this is to run the notebook in ipython command line and everything works as expected, but when running from the python notebook I get the failure described in the first comment.
This is probably some interaction between the network connection of the notebook and the network connection to the slaves running tasks?
