@luisquintanilla Could you share your platform details (are you using windows)?

Were you able to install the nuget package successfully? Are you downloading the package from nuget.org?

@baijumeswani I am on Windows. However, I'm using devcontainers.

Here is my configuration:

https://github.com/luisquintanilla/ort-genai-phi2/blob/main/.devcontainer.json

System Info:

• Debian
• Python 3.10
• .NET 6
• Intel CPU

Let me know if you need anything else.

I also have an NVIDIA RTX 3080. However, I also get this issue on the CPU. So to keep things simple, let's assume CPU only.

We have not published the nuget binaries for linux yet. This will be supported in future releases but is not supported right now.

I got the same error on windows, with nuget packages.

 var a = new Microsoft.ML.OnnxRuntimeGenAI.Model(@"C:\dev\hugginfacecli\multilingual-e5-large\onnx");

Unhandled exception. System.DllNotFoundException: Unable to load DLL 'onnxruntime-genai' or one of its dependencies: The specified module could not be found. (0x8007007E)

I also encountered the same error when loading phi-3, but it occurred during cuda and was normal on CPU

For CUDA, make sure your CUDA binaries are discoverable by adding them to your PATH.
For example, for me the cuda binaries are located in: C:\Program Files\NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit\CUDA\v11.8\bin and this path should be added to your PATH env variable.

i don't have nvidia, just want to run on CPU

I got the same error experimenting on a Surface Studio Laptop 2 on Windows, but discovered I could get past this error by ensuring I had both references:

<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.ML.OnnxRuntimeGenAI" Version="0.2.0-rc4" />
<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.ML.OnnxRuntimeGenAI.Cuda" Version="0.2.0-rc4" />

Still running into issues on Windows with version 0.3.0-rc2.

Here's the error I'm getting.

C:\a\_work\1\s\onnxruntime\core\session\provider_bridge_ort.cc:1426 onnxruntime::ProviderLibrary::Get [ONNXRuntimeError] : 1 : FAIL : LoadLibrary failed with error 126 "" when trying to load "C:\Dev\ort-genai-phi2\ORTGenAIPhi\bin\Debug\net8.0\runtimes\win-x64\native\onnxruntime_providers_cuda.dll"

I'm using the Phi-3 model. https://huggingface.co/microsoft/Phi-3-mini-4k-instruct

With FP16 CUDA

My code is still the same. The only thing that changed was the model I'm using.

We have not published the nuget binaries for linux yet. This will be supported in future releases but is not supported right now.

That would be perfect, especially for the Cuda version.

Just to make sure - currently there's no way of running apps using onnxruntime-genai on Linux purely with Nuget packages (either CPU or GPU)?
I've been trying to run the example app from https://github.com/microsoft/Phi-3CookBook/tree/main/md/07.Labs/Csharp/src since yesterday, I thought I had some issues on a system level.
If I read the support matrix correctly, it suggests Linux is supported.

@L-Sypniewski Work is being done to support NuGet scenarios on Linux. I'm not sure if it can make it in 0.4.0, though.

0.4.0-rc1 NuGet package is out with Linux-x64 support. Feel free to check it out: https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.ML.OnnxRuntimeGenAI/0.4.0-rc1

I'll close this for now.

I'm seeing dependencies on packages I can't resolve via nuget.org
