When I load the bert-base-german-cased pytorch model using the following command lines:

from transformers.modeling_tf_auto import TFAutoModel
bert_model = TFAutoModel.from_pretrained(‘bert-base-german-cased’, from_pt=True, config=self.bert_config)

or the tensorflow checkpoint:

TFAutoModel.from_pretrained(‘path_to_bert_base_german_cased_tensorflow_checkpoint’, config=self.bert_config)

I get the following error:

Environment info is as follows:
transformers: 3.0.2
tensorflow and tensorflow-gpu: 1.15.2
platform: ubuntu 16.04
CUDA: V10.0.130
python: 3.6.10
Similar problem discussed in the following link when importing TFDistilBert model: https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/issues/2641 12 but did not solve my issue.
Any clues how to fix this issue?
Thanks
