Keras: ImportError: `save_model` requires h5py even thought the code already imported h5py

Question

I ran into some trouble when trying to save a Keras model:

Here is my code:

import h5py
from keras.models import load_model

try:
    import h5py
            


        

Answer 1

Have you tried directly installing h5py? http://docs.h5py.org/en/latest/build.html

Try running pip install h5py

Answer 2

Make sure you use the latest version of Keras.

Also, this error has been reported here in the keras github: https://github.com/fchollet/keras/issues/3426

on linux:

sudo apt-get install libhdf5
sudo pip install h5py
