I have a simple code:

path = [filepath1, filepath2, filepath3]

def umap_embedding(filepath):
    file = np.genfromtxt(filepath,delimiter=' ')
    if len(file) > 20000:
        file = file[np.random.choice(file.shape[0], 20000, replace=False), :]
    neighbors = len(file)//200

    if neighbors >= 2:
        neighbors = neighbors
    else:
        neighbors = 2

    embedder = umap.UMAP(n_neighbors=neighbors,
                         min_dist=0.1,
                         metric='correlation', n_components=2)
    embedder.fit(file)
    embedded = embedder.transform(file)
    name = 'file'
    np.savetxt(name,embedded,delimiter=",")

if __name__ == '__main__':
    p = Pool(processes = 20)
    start = time.time()
    for filepath in path:
        p.apply_async(umap_embedding, [filepath])
        p.close()
        p.join()

    print("Complete")
    end = time.time()
    print('total time (s)= ' + str(end-start))

When I execute, the console return the error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/cngc3/CBC/parallel.py", line 77, in <module>
    p.apply_async(umap_embedding, [filepath])
  File "/home/cngc3/anaconda3/envs/CBC/lib/python3.6/multiprocessing/pool.py", line 355, in apply_async
    raise ValueError("Pool not running")
ValueError: Pool not running

I tried to find the solution for this problem on Stackoverflow and Google but there's no related problem. Thank you for your help.

p.close() and p.join() must be placed after the for-loop. Otherwise the pool is closed in the first iteration of the loop and doesn't accept new jobs in the second.
