How to resolve permission error related to DeepFace in Dataiku?
I am using DeepFace library in Dataiku. When I write code in Jupyter notebook and try to import the library, I am able to do it. But when I try to export it as python recipe and try to execute the same code it's not working. It gives me Permission Error.
How to resolve this?

On the same file you can see the get_deepface_home() function tries to find the DEEPFACE_HOME environment variable and defaults to the current directory + .deepface which is why you get /data/dataiku/.deepface. You can try to set the DEEPFACE_HOME environment variable to a folder your user ID has full write permissions before you import deepface like this:
import os os.environ["DEEPFACE_HOME"] = "/some/folder/"

Are you using the same code environment on both your Jupyter notebook and recipe? Please post the code snippet and error on a code block (the </> icon on the toolbar).

Yes, I have changed the Code Environment from Advanced Tab, still I am not able to execute it.
