Spacy link error


I had this same issue when I tried this on Windows 10 - the problem was the output of python -m spacy.en.download all said Linking successful but above that was the message that the symbolic link wasn't actually created, due to permissions.

Running python -m spacy.en.download all as an Adminstrator fixed the problem.


You might need to install the specific module too after installing spacy. Try:

python -m spacy.en.download all

Here is the reference link: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/spacy


If you’ve installed a model via pip, you can also import it directly and then call its load() method:

python -m spacy download en

import spacyimport en_core_web_smnlp = en_core_web_.load()doc = nlp(u'This is a sentence.')
