Have you tried deleting the folder and redoing the script again? Just making sure since it used to work very well

[BrunoKrinski]

Yes. I deleted and downloaded the dataset again and it had the same problem. I tried to follow the steps described here: https://github.com/kyamagu/paperdoll/tree/master/data/chictopia

And also, tried to access dataset here: http://vision.is.tohoku.ac.jp/~kyamagu/research/paperdoll/

However, it seems that the links are broken.

[BrunoKrinski]

with the following commands :

wget https://github.com/kyamagu/paperdoll/raw/master/data/chictopia/chictopia.sql.gz
gunzip -c chictopia.sql.gz | sqlite3 chictopia.sqlite3

provided here: https://github.com/hrsma2i/dataset-PaperDoll

I succeeded.

I think the issue you had was related to not having git LFS installed, because the cloning process did not go correctly. If you look at this line: https://github.com/cad0p/maskrcnn-modanet/blob/master/maskrcnn_modanet/download.sh#L51 You can see that the following command is exactly like the one you suggested here. Anyways, it's good to know that the issue is resolved!
