I might try this with a different version of Python (3.6) via changing your anaconda environment to a new one with that version then running this again after installing the appropriate packages. Or, older versions of the ResumeParser package. Looks like someone is running into something similar in a GitHub issue: github.com/github/hub/issues/2711 – Vassaux

Same problem here. – Titanate

Answer 1

To solve the issues, install these versions:

pip install nltk

pip install spacy==2.3.5

pip install https://github.com/explosion/spacy-models/releases/download/en_core_web_sm-2.3.1/en_core_web_sm-2.3.1.tar.gz

pip install pyresparser

your solution worked for me, THANK YOU Bro. Many other solutions throughout web did not worked. I was stuck with this 'spacy.load('en_core_web_sm')' CONFIG.CFG issue for few hours. I was using Colab then. – Anklet

It' not working for me – Insecurity

Thanks! Worked for me too, in Databricks. – Ensoll

Note that pyresparser is effectively incompatible with Python 3.10, because of the spacy dependency. This only worked for me when I changed the Python version to 3.9. – Chaco

python -m spacy validate – Curtsey

Answer 2

Just to explain what caused the E053 error: the installed models were not compatible with the installed spacy version. You can use python -m spacy validate to see your version and if you have any models for it, then install matching versions as in the above answer.
