I have read posts on here but something doesn't seem to work. I am new to Python dev. I am running windows 7 64bit.
I am trying to install pip which I have downloaded and have easy_install in my c:\python27\scripts directory. When I use powershell and type
"python easy_install pip"
I get the error message:
"can't open file easy_install": [Errno 2] No such file or directory.
This seems odd as I can see the easy_install.exe is in that directory.
I have added c:\python27\scripts to my system PATH but, to be honest, I am not sure if this is right.
Could someone please help?
Thank you.
The selected answer dint fix it
This did:
python -m pip install -U pip
The best way to fix this is to compile easy_install yourself. First download the source code, and then compile it using python.
1 - Go here.
2 - Then extract the file, using 7-zip, or any software that can unzip a tar file. This is a tar.gz file, so after one extraction, it will give you the tar file, and then it will give you the actual directory and files for setup tools
3 - Go into the directory where you stored the contents of the extraction (using command prompt). For example, if you stored the directory on your desktop, you cd Desktop and then you go
cd dir_where_easy_install_is.
4 - Then run this command python setup.py install
That will install easy_install for you.
5 - Go back to your command line again, and then just type in easy_install pip, and that will install pip.
Then go ahead, and test it out, by installing django, just go into your command prompt, and enter this pip install django. After the download and the install, type in pip list, and see if django is in there. If it is, then pip has been successfully installed.
This worked running python from it's main dir against the easy_install.py in the extracted setuptools directory.
Then pip files should be in the Scripts dir.
Don't forget to run your CMD as administrator.

I am installing aws cli on Mac. Previously I installed anaconda to control my python versions. So I installed python using conda. Now I want to install aws cli.
By using pip:
pip3 install awscli --upgrade --user
The installation was successful. However, when I run
aws --version
It told me that aws command was not found.
I again tried to add it to the command line path. But I could not find where it was installed.
When I run
which python
It gave me
/anaconda/bin/python
People say this might not be the real folder and it is true I could not find aws cli under it either.
I then run
ls -al /anaconda/bin/python
It gives
lrwxr-xr-x 1 mac staff 9 Aug 15 20:14 /anaconda/bin/python -> python3.6
I dont understand the path at all.
How could I find where my aws cli installed?
I ran into the same issue and eventually found the awscli command in ~/.local/bin. Just add /Users/<username>/.local/bin to your $PATH.
You can do this by editing ~/.bash_profile, which probably already has these lines in it:
# added by Anaconda3 4.4.0 installer
export PATH="/Users/<username>/anaconda/bin:$PATH"
You could make another copy of this line but replace the anaconda path with the new one, but I just updated the existing path since the two are related:
# added by Anaconda3 4.4.0 installer
export PATH="/Users/<username>/.local/bin:/Users/<username>/anaconda/bin:$PATH"
I solved the problem by using conda to install awscli.
conda install -c conda-forge awscli
worked so far. It seems that pip install does not work for conda installed python... Is this conclusion true?
If it's installing and then saying "command not found" it probably just means that the executable it has installed is not referenced in the operating systems PATH environment variable.
Here is how to add the downloaded executable to PATH: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-install-macos.html#awscli-install-osx-path
Here is the AWS docs to troubleshoot the issue: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/troubleshooting.html
I encountered an identical situation.
I solved this by adding the location of the awscli command to the file...
/etc/paths
The location to my awscli command was where others had found it...
~/.local/bin
From my home directory in Mac OS X Terminal, I entered a quick nano command to edit the /etc/paths file...
sudo nano /etc/paths
#For those who don't know...
#sudo is to get admin access
#nano is quick and dirty file editor.
# /etc/paths is the file you want to edit.
I entered my password, then I just added the awscli command location at the end of the file...
/Users/UpAndAtThem/.local/bin
Yours might be be...
/Users/your_username_here/.local/bin
Still in Nano editor to exit and save: Hit control+X > Hit Y > Hit Enter.
Here's a quick video...

Good luck!
I installed easy install it is in my scripts folder. I set my path variable. When I type python in cmd it works, but no matter what I try if I type easy_install it says it is not recognized. I am trying to install pip and then pytmx. is there an easier way to install pytmx? or can someone please walk me through this so I can get this working.
new variable PY_HOME value C:\Python27
path variable %PY_HOME%;%PY_HOME%\Lib;%PY_HOME%\DLLs;%PY_HOME%\Lib\lib-tk;C:\Python27\scripts
python version 2.7.8
windows 7 professional
Update uninstalled all versions of python reinstalled version 2.7.9
now pip is not a recognized command python is still recognized and give me a version number. I still cannot install pytmx.
If you install python 2.7.9 pip is included.
Then just pip install pytmx
I figured it out I needed to cd c:\python27\scripts, then use the pip install tmx command. Nothing I read anywhere suggested I had to run cmd from the directory that pip was in.
I've installed Python 2.7.9, which comes with already bundled with pip. I've check that it's there in the modules list.
But when I run pip install
I get
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
With install highlighted as the error?
What am I doing wrong?
Seems like you are running pip install from Python interactive console. Instead, you should run it from Windows console (cmd or PowerShell):
python2.exe -m pip install <package_name>
Where python2.exe is executable for Python2.7.9 (you may need to include full path to the executable file) and <package_name> is the name of package you want to install
Append C:\Python27\Scripts;in PATH variable
where C:\Python27\Scripts; is the path where pip script is located.
I faced the same issue and got to know that the error is because it is not able to find the pip.exe to execute.
You need to check the path : C:\Python27\Scripts
There, you will find the .exe file and if you run the command from that folder, the command should not give you the error or while running the command, please provide entire path instead of just pip command.
just put python before pip
python pip install <package_name>
To install try the following command:
python.exe -m install web.py
what i would suggest is navigate to the location where pip is located and try with the following command :
Pip install

Probably you want to install Python Modules? I really did many tries, So Finally reached on point to install Python3.6. It offers most easiest way to install it's modules, Try this way
https://stackoverflow.com/a/46652413/8145641
Soon's anwser worked for me, with slight difference, without 2 after python:
python.exe -m pip install <package_name>
What I don't understand, is that this should be equal to the command in interactive console as following, isn't it ?
pip -m install <pachage_name>
Newbie programmer here. This is a variation of this question and this question.
I am running Python 2.7 on Windows 7, and using git bash shell. I am trying to install the numpy package into a virtualenv directory in my work directory. I cannot install it using the $pip install -r requirements.txt or the $pip install numpy commands because of errors caused by its dependencies. Here is a log file for this install failure.
Although I can install numpy directly by downloading the executable binary (.exe) from sourceforge, but it forced me to install it in the c:/Python27/Lib/site-packages directory. I need to install it in my virtualenv work directory, e.g. c:/Users/MyName/Projects/myproject/myvirtualenv.
I need help on how to download the necessary numpy files into a temp directory, and how to use pip or another tool install it into my virtualenv directory.
I researched that I can choose a target directory using the -t option in pip, e.g., "pip install numpy --target=c:/Users/MyName/Projects/myproject/myvirtualenv". But I still can't get over the dependencies errors, so pip doesn't work for me unless I can figure out how to download the numpy files (including all dependencies) into a directory and then install from there.
Thanks for your help!
sudo apt-get install python-Orange
or
sudo apt-get install python-orange
doesn't work
sudo python setup.py install
sudo python setup.py build
is not working as well.
Can anyone help??
Python has two tools for easy installation of all programs that are listed on the Python Package Index, also known as PyPi: These are easy_install and pip. Both retrieve very recent versions of Orange (and of any other package that is updating its PyPi entry regularly).
I installed Orange on Ubuntu 12.04 (LTS) with
pip install orange.
You will see lots of log lines indicating that Pip is downloading and compiling Orange for you. Simply wait. When pip is ready, fire up python and try to import orange. If that works, quit python and try the GUI with python /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/Orange/OrangeCanvas/orngCanvas.pyw (you probably want to create a shell alias or bash script for that one :-)
NOTE: on 12.04 I needed to first upgrade 'distribute' itself with sudo easy_install -U distribute but this was clearly indicated by pip.
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Orange/2.6/
You need to extract the dowloaded tarball on that page to a folder and then change directory to that folder. Then the sudo python setup.py... instructions will work (but you should 'build' the application before you 'install' it).
go to the given link "https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Orange/2.6/"
download the package and extract the file
install with given command
python setup.py build
python setup.py install
note:- during installation make sure that your net is working because it downloads required packages. Also it may ask for C++ or gcc compilers while installing and could be terminate just read the errors care fully and install requires packages from the synaptic package manage in ubuntu.
