TypeError: run() got an unexpected keyword argument 'flags_parser'

I keep getting this error:

TypeError: run() got an unexpected keyword argument ‘flags_parser’

My env:

• OS Platform and version (e.g., Linux Ubuntu 16.04) Ubuntu 16.04
• Python version (e.g. 2.7, 3.5) 3.5.2

tensorboard                   1.10.0                 
tensorflow-gpu                1.10.1                 
tensorflow-tensorboard        0.4.0                  
tf-nightly                    1.11.0.dev20180917     
tf-nightly-gpu                1.11.0.dev20180917     

I recently removed tensorflow and installed tensorflow-gpu, now i’m getting this error whenever I try to run tensorboard --logdir=~/my/path, even if i try a simple tensorboard --help:

tensorflow itself is working fine, i’m only getting this error when i run tensorboard

I didn’t find any similar issue on StackOverflow so i’m asking here, a little help would be awesome, thanks

I assume you also have tb-nightly installed? It’s our nightly build and it’s a dependency of tf-nightly so you’d pick it up automatically if you installed tf-nightly.

You can fix this issue by installing absl-py>=0.4.0. It was an unintentional breakage in our nightly build and should be resolved by tomorrow’s tb-nightly release.

Also, FYI, it’s generally not a good idea to have multiple versions of tensorflow (aka tensorflow-gpu, tf-nightly, and tf-nightly-gpu) installed to the same pip environment. They all share the same import tensorflow namespace, so installing one will actually clobber files in whatever one is already there, since pip is not very smart about managing this kind of collision.

The same goes for TensorBoard - it’s best to install just tensorboard or tb-nightly but not both. You can also uninstall tensorflow-tensorboard - it’s an old name for our pip package and won’t receive any new updates.
