AttributeError: 'SymbolDatabase' object has no attribute 'RegisterServiceDescriptor'

Today, our daily gcloud ml-engine job has been broken. The problem may come from the changes in the module grpc-google-iam-v1. It seems that you did an update for the module grpc-google-iam-v1 from 0.11.1 (?) to 0.11.3 on the server-side.
I compared the "broken" version with the "working" version. I realized that the only diff is in the module grpc-google-iam-v1.

Python version: Python 2.7

Google-Cloud version:

google-cloud==0.24.0
google-cloud-storage==1.2.0
grpc-google-iam-v1==0.11.3

It has been broken because the pip tried to install grpc-google-iam-v1==0.11.3 which did not have the attribute RegisterServiceDescriptor in the object SymbolDatabase

Stacktrace:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/pip", line 5, in <module> from pkg_resources import load_entry_point File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3074, in <module> @_call_aside File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3058, in _call_aside f(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3102, in _initialize_master_working_set for dist in working_set File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3102, in <genexpr> for dist in working_set File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2633, in activate declare_namespace(pkg) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2191, in declare_namespace _handle_ns(packageName, path_item) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2126, in _handle_ns loader.load_module(packageName) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/pkgutil.py", line 246, in load_module mod = imp.load_module(fullname, self.file, self.filename, self.etc) File "/root/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/google/cloud/pubsub/__init__.py", line 30, in <module> from google.cloud.pubsub.client import Client File "/root/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/google/cloud/pubsub/client.py", line 28, in <module> from google.cloud.pubsub._gax import _PublisherAPI as GAXPublisherAPI File "/root/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/google/cloud/pubsub/_gax.py", line 19, in <module> from google.cloud.gapic.pubsub.v1.publisher_client import PublisherClient File "/root/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/google/cloud/gapic/pubsub/v1/publisher_client.py", line 37, in <module> from google.iam.v1 import iam_policy_pb2 File "/root/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/google/iam/v1/iam_policy_pb2.py", line 296, in <module> _sym_db.RegisterServiceDescriptor(_IAMPOLICY) AttributeError: 'SymbolDatabase' object has no attribute 'RegisterServiceDescriptor'

Steps to reproduce:
It's very easy to reproduce:
Cause of #3736, we have to freeze the following version:

google-cloud == 0.24.0
google-cloud-storage == 1.2.0

ps: I did not test the latest version yet but at least the grpc-google-iam-v1==0.11.3 is not compatible with these versions google-cloud

Workaround: freeze the version grpc-google-iam-v1==0.11.1

@sonlac

@sonlac You can address #3736 instead by upgrading to the latest version (2.18.4) of requests

Can you upgrade to the latest version (1.4.0) of google-cloud-storage (which has a hard lower bound of 2.18.0 for requests) and see if the problem still persists?

@dhermes

@dhermes Thank you. I re-tested by upgrading the packages. In both cases, it always raises the same exception as above.
Don't you think that the problem comes from the module grpc-google-iam-v1-0.11.3?

Case 1:

google-cloud==0.24.0
google-cloud-storage==1.4.0

For me it comes from the lib grpc-google-iam-v1.
I have downgraded to version 0.11.1: grpc-google-iam-v1==0.11.1 and it is working great now.

Indeed, I use an old version of google-cloud-pubsub: 0.27.0 instead of the latest 0.28.3
(Cannot upgrade now because the API has changed).

@lukesneeringer

@lukesneeringer Can you confirm that grpc-google-iam-v1 (version 0.11.3 or any other) is still needed?

I assume it is, but not sure. I can try to find out.

Is there an eta on the fix? I ran into the same error running a training pipeline today. Or is there a way to modify the ml engine worker environment when submitting a job?

@selfiebot

@selfiebot We haven't actually confirmed it's an issue. It seems like a bad install of protobuf. (PS Are you a person or a bot?)

@dhermes

@dhermes Sorry about that. I commented via an internal thread, and the username surfaced as "selfie bot". :)

I'm having a similar issue to sonlac, although the error is occuring in apache beam. In my case I'm trying to run a dataflow job, the apache beam word count example that can be found here

I know it's in a different package, but since the error is so rare, I figured it's related.

@jonparrott

@jonparrott @waprin Do you know who would be the point person for dataflow?

I seem to recall previous issues where pickle was being using to serialize Python objects across processes, so this might be related?

@rubinghv Do you mind running pip show protobuf from the same environment where the error occurred? (I'd also be interested in import google.protobuf as pb; print(pb.__version__) if they differ.)

@davidcavazos

@davidcavazos is new DPE focusing on it @amygdala is DA who tends to know things about it as well ,in case either of them can help.

@dhermes

@dhermes

Sure, no worries, and thanks for the quick reply.

pip show protobuf returns:

Name: protobuf
Version: 3.2.0
Summary: Protocol Buffers
Home-page: https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/
Author: protobuf@googlegroups.com
Author-email: protobuf@googlegroups.com
License: New BSD License
Location: /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages
Requires: setuptools, six

When I run import google.protobuf as pb; print(pb.__version__), it prints: 3.2.0

It seems to be a version conflict, that attribute is just not there in protobof==3.2.0, but the beam_fn_api_pb module assumes it is:

In [1]: import google.protobuf

In [2]: google.protobuf.__version__
Out[2]: '3.2.0'

In [3]: import sys

In [4]: sys.version
Out[4]: '2.7.14 (default, Oct  5 2017, 09:30:02) \n[GCC 5.4.0 20160609]'

In [5]: from google.protobuf import symbol_database

In [6]: symbol_database.SymbolDatabase.RegisterServiceDescriptor
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

<ipython-input-6-a114c41d11ce> in <module>()
----> 1 symbol_database.SymbolDatabase.RegisterServiceDescriptor

AttributeError: type object 'SymbolDatabase' has no attribute 'RegisterServiceDescriptor'

It is there in the current latest version (which is 3.4.0):

In [1]: import sys

In [2]: sys.version
Out[2]: '2.7.14 (default, Oct  5 2017, 09:30:02) \n[GCC 5.4.0 20160609]'

In [3]: import google.protobuf

In [4]: google.protobuf.__version__
Out[4]: '3.4.0'

In [5]: from google.protobuf import symbol_database

In [6]: symbol_database.SymbolDatabase.RegisterServiceDescriptor
Out[6]: <unbound method SymbolDatabase.RegisterServiceDescriptor>

Since the answer seems to be "upgrade protobuf", I am going to pre-emptively close this.

If I'm misunderstood the problem and solution, I am sorry. I am certainly happy to re-open this or continue discussion if need be.

This issue is still occurring even with protobuf on version 3.4.0

@parthmishra

@parthmishra Can you run a few commands?

python -m pip show protobuf
python -c 'from google.protobuf import symbol_database; print(getattr(symbol_database.SymbolDatabase, "RegisterServiceDescriptor", None))'

It may be that you are checking the protobuf version and running the code in different interpreters by mistake

@dhermes

@dhermes Sure, here's my output:

python -m pip show protobuf
Name: protobuf
Version: 3.4.0
Summary: Protocol Buffers
Home-page: https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/
Author: protobuf@googlegroups.com
Author-email: protobuf@googlegroups.com
License: 3-Clause BSD License
Location: /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
Requires: six, setuptools

and

python -c 'from google.protobuf import symbol_database; print(getattr(symbol_database.SymbolDatabase, "RegisterServiceDescriptor", None))'
<unbound method SymbolDatabase.RegisterServiceDescriptor>

So it seems like it the training submission should work but I still get error for issue #3967

So it looks like there's no issue. The original report was:

AttributeError: 'SymbolDatabase' object has no attribute 'RegisterServiceDescriptor'

@dhermes

@dhermes so if I'm still getting that AttributeError on a training submission, there is some other decency issue at play?

on a training submission

You need to make sure the interpreter that is running there has an up-to-date version of protobuf. Your local interpreter only tells you about itself.

I come across the same problem as Parthmishra described. I use protobuf-3.4.0, and the output check is as below:
python -c 'from google.protobuf import symbol_database; print(getattr(symbol_database.SymbolDatabase, "RegisterServiceDescriptor", None))'

But when I run the trainning, it show the same error message:
AttributeError: 'SymbolDatabase' object has no attribute 'RegisterServiceDescriptor'

I post a new issue in GoogleCloudPlatform/cloudml-samples#99 to describe the details of my problem.

Is there anything else I can do to solve the problem?

@luckyapplehead

@luckyapplehead I'm not familiar with this service, but the issue is the environment where you "run the training". What is the environment? Provide a link or some other context?

I have solved the problem according to parthmishra's advice as belows:

In your setup.py just list the version number afterwards i.e. protobuf==3.4.0 instead of protobuf (or change your requirements.txt if you're using that instead)

Thanks very much:)
