starting container process caused "exec: \"python\": executable file not found in $PATH"

Issue:
docker: Error response from daemon: OCI runtime create failed: container_linux.go:349: starting container process caused "exec: \"python\": executable file not found in $PATH": unknown. ERRO[0006] error waiting for container: context canceled

I am trying to get the linux CV server going on my Azure GPU VM on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. The VM is NC6_Promo with 6 vCPUs, 56GB of RAM and 128GB SSD.

I ran the install script on a newly created VM and everything seemed to install OK. nvidia-smi shows the correct output and the GPU is working.

I ran docker run -p 8501:80 -e NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES="0" controls_detection eula=accept but this does not work and results in the error message at the very top of this issue. It appears to be some kind of python environment issue. Possibly in the docker container.

Any ideas on how to fix this? I may try to use RHEL instead of Ubuntu to see if that makes a difference.

Thanks!

I am sorry for the late response here. Is this issue resolved or does it require additional investigation?

I never resolved this issue with the CV Server on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. I did try the CV Server on RHEL as well, but that did not work either. But I did get the CV Server working on Windows.

@oscar-o-oneill when was the controls_detection.tar downloaded? Maybe a new one would do the trick. I tested the tar that is currently in production, and it seems to work. I can try reproducing the bug with your tar if you could share it.

Hi, I downloaded the controls_detection.tar around the same time as this original post, so maybe around September or October 2020. I haven't tried it with a newer container package.
