fatal error: caffe/proto/caffe.pb.h: No such file or directory #include "caffe/proto/caffe.pb.h"

Sorry I closed the previous issue by mistake?

Here's the exact output I get, when I try to make dqn-in-the-caffe

It definitely seems like its a problem with how I'm installing caffe, but it passes all the tests, and works for MNIST? I've tried to reinstall it 3 times but no luck?

[muupan]

You need to generate caffe.pb.h manually using protoc as follows.

# In the directory you installed Caffe to
protoc src/caffe/proto/caffe.proto --cpp_out=.
mkdir include/caffe/proto
mv src/caffe/proto/caffe.pb.h include/caffe/proto

[AjayTalati]

Hi, thanks a lot for the help! I really appreciate it :)

We're making progress, but now there seems to be a problem with a solver?

I can't find anything on the internet about this one

[muupan]

The message shows BVLC/caffe#1228 is not merged into your caffe. DQN-in-the-caffe depends on that PR.

I've tested DQN-in-the-caffe only with my forked caffe branch https://github.com/muupan/caffe/tree/dqn, so I recommend you use it.

[AjayTalati]

Great! Thanks, I've built it all sucessfully, and have some note/docs, if any one else needs help?

I'll be testing it tonight and over the weekend on pong. Will get back to you 👍

May I ask if you've ever tested your code on freeway.bin or othello.bin

[muupan]

Congratulations! I hope to hear the results. I've never tried freeway nor othello yet.

[IdiosyncraticDragon]

@muupan thank you! It's really helpful.

[godisboy]

Thank you! It works!

[edWin-m]

@muupan Thanks

[ecilay]

hi @muupan , after implement your suggestions, still the same error...any other advices? tks!
`# In the directory you installed Caffe to
