Pandas Profiling, profile_report method error

I installed pandas-profiling with pip for jupyter notebook (not using conda!), and everything was working fine, until I installed plotly

Now, when I try to use the df.profile_report() method, I get the following error:

DispatchError: Function <code object pandas_missing_bar at 0x12c62e500, file "/Users/myuser/myvenv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/pandas_profiling/model/pandas/missing_pandas.py", line 18>

Please advise,

Solution

  • got the same error here.

    This is what I did to solve this issue:

    Uninstall all following dependencies and then install them again with these specific versions:

    pandas-profiling==2.7.1
Jinja2==3.0.3
itsdangerous==2.0.1
Flask==1.1.1

    Reference: https://github.com/pallets/flask/issues/4494

    After doing that you may get this error while trying to generate a ProfileReport.

    TypeError: Cannot interpret '<attribute 'dtype' of 'numpy.generic' objects>' as a data type

    You can also solve this one by installing this specific version of numpy:

    pip install numpy==1.16.5 --force-reinstall

    Worked for me, hope it helps you!
