Problem with Docker Configuration and CUDA for Reranker-Transformers

I followed the tutorial and used the following Docker configuration:

reranker-transformers:  
  # Set the name of the inference container
  image: semitechnologies/reranker-transformers:baai-bge-reranker-v2-m3
  container_name: reranker-transformers-container 
  network_mode: "bridge"
  volumes:
    - .:/usr/src/app
  ports:
    - 50051:8080
  restart: always
  environment:
    ENABLE_CUDA: 0  # set to 1 to enable
  deploy:
    resources:
      reservations:
        devices:
          - driver: nvidia
            device_ids: ['0']
            capabilities: [gpu]

After successfully starting the service, when I set ENABLE_CUDA to 1, calling the service results in the following error:

However, if I set ENABLE_CUDA to 0, there is no issue.

Why does this issue only happen with the reranker? I am asking because I used the transformers-inference image with ENABLE_CUDA: 1 without any problems:

t2v-transformers:
  image: semitechnologies/transformers-inference:baai-bge-m3-onnx
  container_name: ccpg-t2v-transformers-container # Separate from JiaoDa naming
  network_mode: "bridge"
  volumes:
    - .:/usr/src/app
  ports:
    - 50049:8080
  restart: always
  environment:
    ENABLE_CUDA: 1  # set to 1 to enable
  deploy:
    resources:
      reservations:
        devices:
          - driver: nvidia
            device_ids: ['0']
            capabilities: [gpu]

Additionally, I would like to know how to configure these services to load pre-downloaded models from the local machine.

hi @cyc00518 !!

In order to have pre loaded models you will need to build a custom model.

Here is the link that explains that in detail:

Also, can you yu try running this service with the following docker, from here?

Thanks!

Hi, @DudaNogueira

Thanks for your reply!

Actually, it’s the same when using docker image semitechnologies/reranker-transformers:cross-encoder-ms-marco-MiniLM-L-6-v2

  reranker-transformers:  # Set the name of the inference container
    image: semitechnologies/reranker-transformers:cross-encoder-ms-marco-MiniLM-L-6-v2
    container_name: reranker-transformers-container 
    network_mode: "bridge"
    volumes:
      - .:/usr/src/app
    ports:
      - 50051:8080
    restart: always
    environment:
      ENABLE_CUDA: 1 # set to 1 to enable
    deploy:
      resources:
        reservations:
          devices:
            - driver: nvidia
              device_ids: [ '0' ]
              capabilities: [ gpu ]

  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/torch/cuda/__init__.py", line 305, in _lazy_init
    raise AssertionError("Torch not compiled with CUDA enabled")
AssertionError: Torch not compiled with CUDA enabled

I think it might be caused by torch. Maybe when building the reranker image, you should use the image from NVIDIA’s nvcr.io/nvidia/pytorch to ensure that torch is installed correctly.

Because the current image is unable to properly detect the GPU, as shown below.

Furthermore, I also do the same test on embedding model image,
Although I set ENABLE_CUDA: 1, and the calling does not raise any errors, in reality, the GPU is still not being utilized.

 t2v-transformers:
    image: semitechnologies/transformers-inference:baai-bge-m3-onnx
    container_name: t2v-transformers-container 
    network_mode: "bridge"
    ports:
      - 50049:8080
    restart: always
    environment:
      ENABLE_CUDA: 1 # set to 1 to enable
    deploy:
      resources:
        reservations:
          devices:
            - driver: nvidia
              device_ids: [ '0' ]
              capabilities: [ gpu ]

I test it on both GPU card A5000 and H200, and the results were the same.

If I’m wrong, please correct me. Thank you!

hi @cyc00518 !

I believe the best course of action here is opening a github issue on that repository:
