Pytorch Exception in Thread: ValueError: signal number 32 out of range
I'm getting this error:

Exception in Thread: ValueError: signal number 32 out of range


The specific tutorial that raises an issue for me is the training a classifier (https://pytorch.org/tutorials/beginner/blitz/cifar10_tutorial.html), the specific line is: 

dataiter = iter(trainloader) 


and the full error traceback is:

Exception in thread Thread-5:

My operation system is Ubuntu 18.10 and my python env is Anaconda3 for python 3.6. I installed pytorch from the latest source. My cuda version is 10.0.

I have faced a similar issue and it got resolved when I set:

num_workers=0
