Was trying to run the below command and had this error

How do i fix this ?

I also encountered this problem, did you solve it?

@wl4135 @pidugusundeep sorry for late response. could you pls share us the reproduce steps and related pb file? it's more like protobuf parse issue rather than quantization tool issue.
