CMake error upon installation on MacOS

[maxholsman]

Hi everyone,

I am trying to install mujoco on my Mac and keep getting the following error when running 'pip install mujoco' or 'pip install 'gymnasium[mujoco]'. The full error is copied after this post.

subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['cmake', '--build', '.', '-j16', '--config', 'Release']' returned non-zero exit status 2.

Interestingly, when I run pip install mujoco outside of a conda environment, I don't seem to get any errors, however I am still unable to run python scripts that use mujoco directly or through gymnasium. Any idea on how to solve this issue?

(the entire output is obviously much longer - I have only copied the last lines close to the error)

[nimrod-gileadi]

Are you intentionally building from source, or just pip install mujoco?

If the latter, it could be an instance of #1213, which should be resolved with the release we just pushed, 3.1.0. Let us know how it goes.

In the future, please post issues, since we monitor those more than we do discussions.
