attempt to call field 'Unsqueeze' (a nil value)

[bienbinod]

Hi,

I installed this package on my machine successfully and passed all the unit test. But when I run code, it shows following error. I would really appreciate �if you could let me know why it is happening. I am new to Torch.

You are trying to require a library (rnn) that is trying to call nn.Unsqueeze which is not included in this older nn module. Your code is failing at:
require("rnn")

I had the same issue when trying to require Element-Research's rnn module. I did some browsing through their git version tree and managed to find an older version:

git clone https://github.com/Element-Research/rnn.git
cd rnn
git reset --hard b7ee2fd211 #to switch to the older version of rnn

rm -rf <path to your package install dir>/rnn #to remove the previous installation of rnn
cp ./* <path to your package install dir>/rnn
I did try using luarocks to install the older rnn version but it kept installing the latest version of rnn for some reason.

This did fix the require error but I have no idea if the rnn module works because I was having another error when training my model related to my AMD card.
