This afternoon after installing progressbar I have this problem importing matplolib:
>>> import matplotlib

I had tried to reinstall matplolib and python 27 several times on my windows 7 64 bit, but I have always the same error.
The Error message says:
please run the chkdsk utility
But I don't understand where is this utility and how I can run it.

I am trying to create a simple histogram for a csv file named "count_backers.csv". The code that I have so far is as follows:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
# import numpy as np
import plotly.plotly as py
import csv
def make_hist(csv_filepath):
data = open(csv_filepath)
reader = csv.reader(data)
column = []
for row in data:
column.append(row)
plt.hist(column)
plt.title("Number of Backers")
plt.xlabel("Frequency")
plt.ylabel("Value")
plt.show()
# fig = plt.gcf()
# plot_url = py.plot_mpl(fig, filename='backers_histogram')
backer_data = r"C:/Users/user/Documents/user/Programming/count_backers.csv"
make_hist(backer_data)
I began learning python using Learn Python the Hard Way, and I am used to executing python files from PowerShell. However, I was struggling to install and build matplotlib on Windows and for the sake of time I decided to install it on Windows Subsystem for Linux Ubuntu. After I was able to get that working I am now getting the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "histogram.py", line 22, in <module>
make_hist(backer_data)
File "histogram.py", line 7, in make_hist
data = open(csv_filepath)
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:/Users/user/Documents/user/Programming/count_backers.csv'
I have tried several different versions of the filepath including:
backer_data = r"C:\Users\user\Documents\user\Programming\count_backers.csv"
backer_data = "mnt/c/Users/user/Documents/user/Programming/count_backers.csv"
backer_data = r"mnt\c\Users\user\Documents\user\Programming\count_backers.csv"
These produce the following errors respectively:
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:\\Users\\user\\Documents\\user\\Programming\\count_backers.csv'
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'mnt/c/Users/user/Documents/user/Programming/count_backers.csv'
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'mnt\\c\\Users\\user\\Documents\\user\\Programming\\count_backers.csv'
When I use ls on the specified directory though it does show the file being there:
smidem#JealousHippo:/mnt/c/Users/user/Documents/user/Programming$ ls
column_avg.py count_backers.csv histogram.py pledged.csv
I'm pretty confused as to why it is unable to locate this file and any help would be greatly appreciated.
With l0b0's help I changed backer_data to backer_data = "/mnt/c/Users/user/Documents/user/Programming/count_backers.csv" but I am now receiving this in response:

I've just installed pychecker on windows 7 Pro using "python setup.py install". When I run it on my script using the command:

If anyone could point me in the right direction that would be great.

Problem resolved.
I found the following support request on SourceForge which refers to a need to use short format (8.3) path and filenames in pychecker.bat and not long format as is allowed in newer versions of Windows.

I'm installing Caffe on an Ubuntu 14.04 virtual server with CUDA installed (without driver) using https://github.com/BVLC/caffe/wiki/Ubuntu-14.04-VirtualBox-VM as inspiration. I've installed all the necessary dependencies and have followed all the instructions step by step but get the error below when I try to test the installation.
In regards to the step:
" Modify python/classify.py to add the --print_results option"
I had amended the code via in classify.py to be identical to the official caffe distribution. Not sure if that is the step that is causing the problem but thought I'd add that extra piece of information just in case.
The error i get is as below:

Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Check your current shell environment, these variables: LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE, LANG, LANGUAGE:
set | grep -a '^LC_ALL=.'; set | grep -a '^LC_CTYPE=.';
set | grep -a '^LANG=.'; set | grep -a '^LANGUAGE=.'
Likely the first printed line will contain one of these variables equal to 'UTF-8'. This is wrong.
A proper locale should have language and optional country and encoding specification, like 'en' or 'en_US' or 'ru_RU.UTF-8'. There's a special locale 'C' used as fallback.
So you may redefine your locale permanently in /etc/default/locale (don't forget to reload your settings, the easiest way is to logoff/logon), or simply override it for a particular command:
> LC_ALL=C python python/classify.py --print_results examples/images/cat.jpg foo
Regarding libdc1394: if you don't need interaction with FireWire check ctypes error: libdc1394 error: Failed to initialize libdc1394
When I run the following code: http://dpaste.com/0210P09 everything works fine on my Linux distro.
However, in Windows7 (64bit) I cannot successfully save it in eps or svg.
This is the error that I get:

TypeError: Can't convert 'bytes' object to str implicitly
If i use text.usetex : False I have no problem at all.
I have livetex full and Ghostscript installed.
Any suggestions to try and solve it?
There are two problems here. The first and minor one is that in
C:\Users\12151056\AppData\Local\Continuum\Anaconda3\lib\site-package\matplotlib\backends\backend_ps.py", line 1556
you should change
fh.read()
to
fh.read().decode()
This is a Python 2/3 bug, that occurs while handling the fact that something with Ghostscript went wrong.
The main problem is that matplotlib cannot find Ghostscript because it is not in the path environmental variable. You can check that by opening a command prompt and trying the command gswin32c or gs. If these commands are not found you have to add the path of these Ghostscript executables to the path environmental variable. In my case it was:
C:\Program Files (x86)\gs\gs8.54\bin
but it depends on your installation path.
I was trying to install a module for opencv and added an opencv.pth file to the folder beyond my sites.py file. I have since deleted it and no change.
When I try to run help('modules'), I get the following error:
Please wait a moment while I gather a

What gives?!
This happens because help('modules') imports all modules, which can result in a lot of unsentineled code being executed. There's nothing you can do short of reporting bugs in every single package that causes this (opencv in this case) and wait for them to fix it.
