Anyone got this error?

I have a bunch of problems when I use my Windows 10 machine, I would highly suggest using a VM like AWS EC2 or a macOS/ubuntu based machine.

In case anyone cares, I also had this issue. Looks like installing mpi4py via PIP doesn't work but via conda does.

Here is a conda YML based on the provided requirements.txt to create an environment:
