Tensorboard: Unable to run TensorBoard after TF v1.4 upgrade

[Carmezim]

Python 3.6
OS High Sierra
TensorFlow v1.4

As reported here and in this SO question Tensorboard gives the following error when it's ran:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/tensorboard", line 11, in <module>
    sys.exit(main())
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/tensorboard/main.py", line 39, in main
    return program.main(default.get_plugins(),
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/tensorboard/default.py", line 71, in get_plugins
    debugger = debugger_plugin_loader.get_debugger_plugin()
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/tensorboard/plugins/debugger/debugger_plugin_loader.py", line 46, in get_debugger_plugin
    if FLAGS.debugger_data_server_grpc_port is None:

This should only impact tf-nightly users. Quick fix is pip install --upgrade tb-nightly. Assuming https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/pull/14741 is merged (which causes tf-nightly to depend on tb-nightly [only automated yesterday]), this issue shall be fixed at approximately the witching hour when tf-nightly 20171122 is loosed. Therefore I'm going to tentatively close this issue. If anything should go wrong, please leave a comment and I'll reopen.

Thank you @jart! Nice improvement on the nightly build :)

UnparsedFlagAccessError: Trying to access flag --preserve_unused_tokens before flags were parsed.
Is there any way i can get rid of this error please.

After running this codes below:

Tokenised sample of the first training set observation looks like

print(tokenizer.tokenize(train_InputExamples.iloc[0].text_a))

Here is the output error:

@Adeyinka-hub thanks for posting the error output. Based on the trace, it looks like the error you are seeing is more related to the 'bert' package than 'tensorboard'.

You may wish to follow https://github.com/google-research/bert/issues/1133, which seems similar to the issue you report.
