That thing is like an 11 out of 10 install difficulty. I hate github projects that are really difficult to get working.

I’m using Debian. So many fucking issues. It probably can’t work on Debian but I’d really like to know what system people are using who have been successful in getting this to actually work.

        I wish I could use docker. Docker keeps crashing something and it kills all dns resolving on the server pretty much anytime a docker command is running. Docker runs the equivalent of a “sudo apt get update”, it first starts out working and then each request starts failing with “ign” and taking a long time to do so. Nothing else on that computer can access the internet while this is happening (but lan networking works). It goes from printing “get” status to printing “ign” status for each line starting at different points each time but I haven’t got to the end without it failing yet. I don’t know of anything else on my computer that causes dns requests to just stop working like that, so this is probably a deep obscure issue I’ll never find a way to fix.

        I don’t really care anymore though. Fuck all this broken shit.

    I did some time back. I don’t recall it being incredibly difficult to get running. What hardware are you trying to run it on?

      I had it running on Windows (no container) a while back. Wasn’t particularly difficult at that time, at least.

      Can’t give any advice here though, since all we’ve been given to work with is an OS.

    I struggled to get it set up last night, eventually I stumbled across issue 796 on the github which had the solution. https://github.com/neonbjb/tortoise-tts/issues/796#issuecomment-2204846504

    Seems there’s an issue with the dependencies currently and all versions of installing tortoise-tts from the existing instructions is doomed to failure without manual intervention.

    As mikejgrecojr commented in the linked github issue, the fix for running via docker is:

    Try updating your Dockerfile by adding in scipy to the conda install and specifying version 1.13.1 on line 31 like below. That worked for me:

    && conda install pytorch==2.2.2 torchvision==0.17.2 torchaudio==2.2.2 pytorch-cuda=12.1 scipy=1.13.1 -c pytorch -c

    I have it working on Debian, it wasn’t THAT hard, but I never got it to work with the GPU so it was SUPER slow. I’ve since found XTTS2 which set up super easy, comes with a web GUI and just supports my GPU out of the box.
