Trouble Downloading Cosmolopy for Windows

[Jake Hebert]

Hello.  I am having trouble downloading CosmoloPy for Windows.  My system administrator has been attempting to download it using pip, and he keeps getting this error message:

InstallationError: Command c:\python27\python.exe -c "import setuptools;__file__='C:\\Users\\jhebert\\Desktop\\CosmoloPy-0.1.104\\CosmoloPy-0.1.104\\build\\cosmoloPy\\setup.py';exec(compile(open(__file__).read().replace('\r\n', '\n'), __file__, 'exec'))" install --single-version-externally-managed --record c:\users\jhebert\appdata\local\temp\pip-fzxc1d-record\install-record.txt failed with error code 1 in C:\Users\jhebert\Desktop\CosmoloPy-0.1.104\CosmoloPy-0.1.104\build\cosmoloPy

Would anyone happen to have any idea what the problem might be?  I am using Python 2.7 and the IDLE GUI, if that helps, any.

Hi,

Sorry to hear about your trouble.

Do you think this is specific to cosmolopy? Can you successfully "pip install" other packages? Have you tried easy_install?

Have you tried downloading the package and installing with the commands below?

 python setup.py build
 python setup.py nosetests
 python setup.py install

Robin,
   Yes, the problem does seem to be specific to cosmoloPy (my system administrator was able to successfully install scipy, matplotlib, etc.).
