error validating vae

[notjedi]

i'm getting the following error when using stabilityai/sdxl-vae as the VAE:

07:49:57-850003 ERROR Validating stabilityai/sdxl-vae existence... FAILED: does not exist.

fix

kohya_ss/kohya_gui/dreambooth_gui.py

Line 544 in 95f8883

if not validate_folder_path(vae):

the above line should be using validate_model_path instead of validate_folder_path

Dans, I will fix that today.

i see that you have made a commit(#2454) to fix this issue but it's still not fixed. you've replaced validate_folder_path with validate_file_path instead of validate_model_path.

[bmaltais]

OK... I never use this option so maybe there is something I don't get... vae are usually indifidual files... so I check for the presence of the file at the path specified. Are you not passing a local file path to the VAE file?

[notjedi]

you can either give it a path to a file or a huggingface identifier like stabilityai/sdxl-vae

Crap... this is what I was afraid of... I will update the model verification and merge the PR on top.
