This has come up a fair bit in the wild. According to featurecat this is actually associated with not having a correct network file.

So first make sure you have a network weights file called "network" (not, for example, "network.txt") in the directory you are running from, and that it has been uncompressed if you downloaded a compressed version (it should be around 155 megabytes) [edit: typo - should be 115 million bytes = 110 megabytes].

Other common startup problems include not having the right name for the Leela Zero executable (if you're on windows, it should be leelaz.exe, not leelaz).

You were right, I didnt have the network file in the right place, but now I do and it should also be decompressed afaik( its only 110 MB though, but it was 31 before decompressing, so something happened..). I still got the same error message though.
Now I tried it again and this time I didnt get any exception just "Leelaz process ended." without an exception and without anything happening.

Thanks for helping me!

Edit: I checked what you wrote again, and it sais it should NOT be called network.txt, so I did that wrong... How do I get windows to forget it thought it was a .txt?

Edit2: that was easy via cmd, and now it actually works! Thanks a lot for your help!!

I have a three-year old Intel desktop with four CPUs and no GPU. Leela with the 115883856-byte network works well AFAICT. Less need now to post in Game Analysis. All my games are played over the board, so the loss of sociability will not matter much.

You (Uberdude) are much stronger than me, so your standards may be higher.

I can't open file .jar although has loaded new version java (who can help?)

From the readme.txt file:

What's next, download and then do anything else?

I open file .jar continuity,but it don't work.Does it need to be associated with sabaki?Is it necessary to run this .jar file?

It looks like you have a folder named "network" and Lizzie expects this to be just the file. After uncompressing the .gz that you downloaded, rename it so that the file itself is just "network" at the top level of the Lizzie folder. So probably inside that "network" folder is the file that you want.

I can't get Lizzie work either. I downloaded the file and did like readme.txt guided. All I get is .jar opening the board and after about one second it disappering. I have Windows 7, is that a problem?

I use windows 7 with no problems. If you download LeelaZero itself and run autogtp.exe, does it work with no issues?

Same problem lucibel's,I open file .jar then disappear i use win10 64bit

First, delete the folder "network".
Next, rename the file "leelaz-model-swa-24-192000.txt" to "network", not "network.txt".

I downloaded the lastest version, I can launch the Jar file. I can open the interface ( there is the board and the picture behind) and it says Leela zero is loading. Is it normal or shoud I download something else.
Sorry if someone already asked the same thing and thank you for your help ^^

No, Win7 is not a problem. You guys probably need sort it out yourself.
a) You need a proper installation of JRE, proper registering of .jar file type.
b) if you downloaded gzipped weight file, you of course need to unpack it
c) Have a look into lizzie.properties, it references the weights file. ("weights": "filename",)

I just update JRE and what is this?

I think it's called Java sucking. Delete and replace the file?
I tend to find that after install I have to start Lizzie 3 times before it works properly. Kind of strange as far as bugs go.

My Lizzie.jar is 380kB so yours certainly looks suspect.

You probably tried to open the .jar file with a wrong application and broke it at May 10. You can download and extract the file "lizzie-windows-64-cpu.zip" again to get a new one.

tks all bros I did it

Anyone know how to run LZ on sabaki?What's this mistake?
