ImportError: Can't find framework /System/Library/Frameworks/OpenGL.framework

Question

I am trying to run this simple gym example on the new macOs Big Sur.

import gym
env = gym.make('CartPole-v0')
env.reset()
for _ in range(1000):
    env.render()
    env.step(env.action_space.sample()) # take a random action
env.close()

However, I am running into this

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/lib/python3.7/site-packages/gym/envs/classic_control/rendering.py", line 25, in <module>

    raise ImportError("Can't find framework %s." % path)
ImportError: Can't find framework /System/Library/Frameworks/OpenGL.framework.

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

ImportError: 
    Error occurred while running `from pyglet.gl import *`
    HINT: make sure you have OpenGL install. On Ubuntu, you can run 'apt-get install python-opengl'.
    If you're running on a server, you may need a virtual frame buffer; something like this should work:
    'xvfb-run -s "-screen 0 1400x900x24" python <your_script.py>'

I followed this and this discussion but could not find a working solution. Could someone help?

Additional Info

• macOs Big Sur 11.0.1
• Python 3.9.0
• PyOpenGL==3.1.5
• pyglet==1.5.11 (after running pip install pyglet==1.5.11 it shows Requirement already satisfied: pyglet==1.5.11 in /Library/Frameworks/..., however, when running print(pyglet.version) in my script I am getting 1.5.0). How can I change that to 1.5.11 even though it is already installed?

Does this help? - #63475961 – Peradventure

@Steve no it doesn't, the answer points to hardcoding this path /System/Library/Frameworks/OpenGL.framework/OpenGL which is the source of the problem – Lunneta

Answer 1

Try pip install pyglet==1.5.11

This will throw a strange warning about compatibility with OpenAI gym module, however still worked for getting the gym environment to boot for me. – Hydrostatics

I have just installed the latest pyglet version forcing the version (pip install pyglet==1.5.15). As @Hydrostatics says, you get a dependency warning (ERROR: pip's dependency resolver does not currently take into account all the packages that are installed. This behaviour is the source of the following dependency conflicts. gym 0.18.0 requires pyglet<=1.5.0,>=1.4.0, but you have pyglet 1.5.15 which is incompatible.), but I successfully got Open AI gym environment rendering working on a Mac running macOS Big Sur 11.2.3. – Gloomy

Answer 2

I have macOS Big Sur 11.1 and Pychram CE 2020.3 with

1. Python 3.7
2. Tensorflow 1.14.0 (for A2C)
3. PyOpenGL 3.1.5
4. Gym 0.17.3
5. Pyglet 1.5.14

Then I installed pyglet 1.5.14 from Python Interpreter. It is worth mentioning that

pip install pyglet==1.5.14

did not solve the error but pyglet 1.5.14 from Python Interpreter worked.

Thanks, but what do mean by pyglet from Python Interpreter? – Vitriform
