Invalid Key Error when Training GPT2 from Scratch using trainer.train()
Hi, I’m having the following error when training GPT2 from scratch.IndexError: Invalid key: 1104 is out of bounds for size 0Overview of TaskI am training GPT2 from scratch on a musical dataset in ABC form with the aim of generating music based on a ABC prompt.Example of ABC form: (|~B2 AB dBAG|FDAD BDAD|FDAD dAFD|)I’d very much appreciate any help.

PyTorch: setting up devices
The default value for the training argument `--report_to` will change in v5 (from all installed integrations to none). In v5, you will need to use `--report_to all` to get the same behavior as now. You should start updating your code and make this info disappear :-).
The following columns in the training set  don't have a corresponding argument in `GPT2LMHeadModel.forward` and have been ignored: text. If text are not expected by `GPT2LMHeadModel.forward`,  you can safely ignore this message.

If there is an additional piece of information, including steps to making the error reproducible,please let me knowand I can supply it.Additionally, if anyone has avague ideaof what is going wrong, let me know so I can work towards fixing this error.Thanks for any help in advance!

I had the same issue and it turned out that the trainer crashed unless the datasets you pass to the training have specific fields (‘input_features’? ‘labels’? something of the sort).After you change the dataset fields don’t forget to adjust the data-collator accordingly

how did you fix this? I have the same issue
