Same problem on ubuntu 16.04

@yasiemir @Shaofanl Experiencing same problem. Did you find a resolve?

[yasiemir]

Temporary resolve is to use the older version mujoco-py 0.5.7 which apparently runs just fine.
pip install mujoco-py==0.5.7

[cardwing]

Right solution. @yasiemir

@yasiemir The problem is that this doesn't work with MJ 1.5, you have to downgrade to 1.31
