I am using pip installed on my machine and have python 2.7 installed on the machine as well

No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu

  • 1- Please copy logs from /home/user/.pip/pip.log to your question to better identify it, 2- use virtualenv to better handling dependencies (it's not solution but tip) 3- why you say vmware?? did you installed ubuntu on a Virtual machine? As far as I heard TF doesn't work on VM, if you are on windows you can use Docker: http://stackoverflow.com/a/33618580/1973820 – Hamed MP Nov 22 '15 at 11:50

    TensorFlow does work on VMWare Workstaion, but you cannot use the GPU. – Guy Coder Nov 22 '15 at 16:04

Use super user for installation.

$ sudo pip install https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/linux/cpu/tensorflow-0.5.0-cp27-none-linux_x86_64.whl

This worked for me.

Tensorflow works fine for me with VMware & Ubuntu. Please try:

sudo apt-get install python-pip python-dev
sudo pip install https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/linux/cpu/tensorflow-0.5.0-cp27-none-linux_x86_64.whl
