Error while installing tensorflow

I am trying to install tensorflow on cluster where I don't have sudo access, but I am receiving this error:

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

So it looks like you are installing the Python version of Tensorflow using Anaconda3 as your Python distribution. The error you are getting is a GLIBC error and isn't really that uncommon it seems. It's an OS/Anaconda/Tensorflow issues in general. What OS are you running?

You are likely running into this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39807621/glibc-2-14-not-recognized-by-tensorflow-installation-in.... It seems this problem is fairly common as a Google search yields a number of similar results. This appears to suggest a workaround: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/33655731/error-while-importing-tensorflow-in-python2-7-in-ubuntu.... If you are not running Ubuntu, you should be able to adapt the specific versions as needed to your OS.
