Hi there, thank you for writing this article. It helped me a lot in navigating the errors that people have been facing in following the Pets tutorial.

I’ve followed your instructions and managed to get past the earlier errors, but now I’m getting a new error further down in train.py:

NotFoundError: Unsuccessful TensorSliceReader constructor: Failed to find any matching files for gs://my-personal-bucket/data/model.ckpt`

This issue was raised in tensorflow/tensorflow in 2016 (#6082 and#7547) and has since been closed. So I assume it’s a bug in tensorflow that has been fixed.

So I have a few questions:

1. Does it matter which python version I’m running locally when I run python setup.py sdist? Is this article targeted at Python 2 or Python 3?
2. Does it matter which version of tensorflow I’ve installed in my local virtual environment? (I’ve tried 1.6.0 and 1.4.0)

Thanks in advance for your advice!
