Has anyone found a solution to this? Initially `HDF5_USE_FILE_LOCKING=‘FALSE’ worked but for some reason the error has returned

This worked for me. I set the environment variable HDF5_USE_FILE_LOCKING to ‘FALSE’.

Added the following line to the .bashrc file and saved it: export HDF5_USE_FILE_LOCKING=‘FALSE’

$ cd ~ $ nano .bashrc
(write in the .bashrc file => export HDF5_USE_FILE_LOCKING=‘FALSE’) $ source .bashrc
