I keep getting this error trying to run tensorboard. I’m a newbie so just taking my first steps trying to visualise an RLlib PPO algorithm training session. Running Windows 11, tensorboard 2.16.2 (and the latest version of numpy 1.26.4 as I’ve seen one comment about possibliity of incompatibility).

Hi @Paul_Vanags, I have tried to plot the training progress of a classification model using tensorboard and I did not face any error. I have used Tensorflow 2.16.1, tensorboard 2.16.2, numpy 1.25.2 versions.
please refer to this gist for working code example. Also could you please try by downgrading the numpy version to 1.25.2 from 1.26.4. Thank You.
