Unable to save simple FLUX model with BSON

Specific Domains Machine Learning
1

Hi,

When I try to save a simple FLUX model like

using Flux, BSON

model = Chain(
    Conv((3, 3), 1=>16, pad=(1,1), relu),
    MaxPool((2,2)),
    Conv((3, 3), 16=>32, pad=(1,1), relu),
    MaxPool((2,2)),
    Conv((3, 3), 32=>32, pad=(1,1), relu),
    MaxPool((2,2)),
    x -> reshape(x, :, size(x, 4)),
    Dense(288, 10),
    softmax,
)

BSON.@save "foo.bson" model

I get

ERROR: LoadError: type Method has no field sparam_syms

I updated to BSON v0.2.4 but this fix did not help me Flux Models Cannot be Saved with BSON · Issue #392 · FluxML/Flux.jl · GitHub

Please, do you have any suggestion? Is there a problem with my modest model? I am new to Julia…

Thank you very much!

I attempted to run the code and it works on my machine.
Please, give me the output of

versioninfo()

using Pkg
Pkg.status()

on your machine.

The outputs on my machine:
