Rstudio crashing when trying to run xgboost model

RStudio IDE
1

Hello,

I've been trying now for two days to get xgboost running with CPU. When I run the model, Rstudio crashes and I get the following error in the logs

26 Nov 2018 16:07:24 [rdesktop] ERROR system error 2 (The system cannot find the file specified); OCCURRED AT: virtual void rstudio::core::http::NamedPipeAsyncClient::connectAndWriteRequest() C:/Users/Administrator/rstudio/src/cpp/core/include/core/http/NamedPipeAsyncClient.hpp:84; LOGGED FROM: void rstudio::desktop::NetworkReply::onError(const rstudio::core::Error&) C:\Users\Administrator\rstudio\src\cpp\desktop\DesktopNetworkReply.cpp:288

Could you please provide us with a self-contained reprex (short for reproducible example)? It will help us help you if we can be sure we're all working with/looking at the same stuff.

install.packages("reprex")

If you've never heard of a reprex before, you might want to start by reading the tidyverse.org help page. The reprex dos and don'ts are also useful.

What to do if you run into clipboard problems

If you run into problems with access to your clipboard, you can specify an outfile for the reprex, and then copy and paste the contents into the forum.

reprex::reprex(input = "fruits_stringdist.R", outfile = "fruits_stringdist.md")

For pointers specific to the community site, check out the reprex FAQ.

Hi,

When I try to create a reprex of the entire code:

require(xgboost)

data(agaricus.train, package='xgboost')
data(agaricus.test, package='xgboost')
train <- agaricus.train
test <- agaricus.test

bstSparse <- xgboost(data = train$data, label = train$label, max.depth = 2, eta = 1, nthread = 2, nrounds = 2, objective = "binary:logistic")

I get the following error: "Error: callr failed, could not start R, exited with non-zero status, has crashed or was killed " but if I don't include the xgboost command the reprex command runs fine. I'm not sure how to share the html file on this website.

Regarding the step by step of the xgboost compilation with GPU support:

  1. I download cmake
  2. I download git for windows
  3. I download and install visual studio 2015 with c++ libraries.
  4. I download and install cuda 9.
  5. I then run the following commands in git for windows:

git submodule init
git submodule update
git clone --recursive https://github.com/dmlc/xgboost
cd xgboost
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -G"Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64" -DUSE_CUDA=ON -DR_LIB=ON
cmake --build . --target install --config Release

4

Do you see the same error when you run this in e.g. RGui or within an R session launched from the terminal?

5

Yes.

If I run it in the RGui, after I run the xgboost command I get "R for Windows terminal front-end has stopped working".

6

I just wanted to note that when I run the last command in the installation (i.e. cmake --build . --target install --config Release)

It finishes installing with 0 errors, but 1597 warnings including the last one:

logging.obj : warning LNK4221: This object file does not define any previously undefined public symbols, so it will not be used by any link operation that consumes this library [C:\Users[NAME]\xgboost\build\objxgboost.vcxproj]

7

If the crash also exists in RGui, there must be something else going on -- e.g. something went wrong during xgboost compilation, or there's some incompatibility with the GPU / GPU drivers you have installed, or something more nebulous. Unfortunately, debugging this will likely be challenging.
