Unable to import variables and functions from firedrake module

[huisophiewang]

Hi,

I installed the latest version of firedrake with Python 3.12. When I run "from firedrake import Mesh", it has "ImportError: cannot import name 'Mesh' from 'firedrake' (unknown location)". When I use "dir(firedrake)" to list the names, it only has these names ['doc', 'file', 'loader', 'name', 'package', 'path', 'spec']. Any idea about what the problem might be and how to solve it?

I think this may suggest that the installation failed. Can you share your log files?

I have the same import error when using the docker image.

Just to check, have you activated the virtual environment?

I believe so. Here's the screenshot

Can you try running this command from a different directory? (e.g. cd ..; python -c "from firedrake import *"). Just to make sure that the top-level firedrake venv isn't being recognised as a package.

That works! Thank you so much!
