I downloaded coco-caption from https://github.com/ruotianluo/coco-caption/pulls
Environment: ubuntu18.04, openjdk version "1.8.0_312", stanford-corenlp-3.4.1, python3.6

Other scores are OK.
An error occurred when calculating the spice score.
What should I do? Thank you!

spice.py
69 # Start job
78 subprocess.check_call(spice_cmd, cwd=os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(file)))

delete stanford-corenlp，then download it again

I also have the same issue, but I cannot see if it depends on the same error in the java executable since the java stacktrace is not visible in other comments.
Here's my Java stack trace:

Did anyone encounter it and knows how to solve it?

I know this is old but I was running this library in a class but with the version of this library for python 3

Running the following code successfully clears the cache and I just call it upon instantiation of my class:
`
from pathlib import Path

spice_cache_dir = Path('/usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/pycocoevalcap/spice/cache')
if not spice_cache_dir.exists():
return
files = spice_cache_dir.glob('*')
for file in files:
file.unlink()
`
