Tensorboard Graph Visualiyation Error using Python 3

Question

I cleared out the differences of python 2to3 in the files tensorboard.py and tensorboard_handler.py but Tensorboard still has Visualization error.

Error on Browser side:

Graph Visualization failed:Error:Failure parsing graph definition

The Server side error log is:

Exception happened during processing of request from ('127.0.0.1', 52783)

Traceback (most recent call last):

Voting to close as it is unclear what you are asking. – Guy Coder Dec 24 '15 at 12:29 — Guy Coder, Dec 24 '15 at 12:29

tensorboard_handler.py uses StringIO, but then passes bytes to it. When working with Python 3, it should probably use BytesIO instead (which is new in Python 3). This question is related: StringIO in python3.

Unfortunately, Tensorboard does not yet support python 3, but if you happen to fix this issue, send a pull request.

Running 2to3 and replacing StringIO by BytesIO indeed fixes the issue for Python 3. I have it fixed locally but would need to make sure the code runs in both Python 2 and 3 before sending a pull request. – jfsantos Jan 10 '16 at 00:19
