i find the way to solve it. cannot use "pip install -e . " to install the environment. if you do so, the file ‘event_pd2’ will be deleted. you can unzip the zip file and find it in /tensorboardX/proto . copy it and solve or just use python setup.py install to install in first time.

Met the “cannot import name ‘event_pb2’” issue, on jetson TX2 (arm platform); I installed v1.8 and v1.9 from source, problem remained; Using the v1.7 solved it, wish this could help. Command is git clone --recursive --branch=v1.7 https://github.com/wqdun/tensorboardX.git
