Traceback (most recent call last):

solution:

There are many methods on the Internet as follows (but it didn't work)

pip uninstall protobuf
pip uninstall google
pip install google
pip install protobuf

I saw someone mention related issues on github: reference link

It seems to be a version problem of protobuf on python3, reinstall the version of protobuf:

pip install protobuf==3.19
