POTrying to install Scrapy - error: Could not find 'openssl.exe'
text
Body
copied!<p>Any thoughts on how to fix this problem? I am using pip to install Scrapy on a Win XP Pro SP 3 machine. I have Python 2.7 installed on the machine. There seems to be a problem with pyOpenSSL. I am getting a "Could not find 'openssl.exe'" error.</p> <p>Here is my log file. I had to hack it up a little because of the URLs in it.</p> <hr> <pre><code>Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): Scrapy in c:\python27\lib\site-packages\scrapy-0.14.4-py2.7.egg Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): Twisted>=2.5 in c:\python27\lib\site-packages (from Scrapy) Downloading from URL pypi.python.org/packages/source/w/w3lib/w3lib-1.2.tar.gz#md5=f929d5973a9fda59587b09a72f185a9e (from pypi.python.org/simple/w3lib/) Running setup.py egg_info for package w3lib running egg_info creating pip-egg-info\w3lib.egg-info writing pip-egg-info\w3lib.egg-info\PKG-INFO writing top-level names to pip-egg-info\w3lib.egg-info\top_level.txt writing dependency_links to pip-egg-info\w3lib.egg-info\dependency_links.txt writing manifest file 'pip-egg-info\w3lib.egg-info\SOURCES.txt' warning: manifest_maker: standard file '-c' not found reading manifest file 'pip-egg-info\w3lib.egg-info\SOURCES.txt' writing manifest file 'pip-egg-info\w3lib.egg-info\SOURCES.txt' Source in c:\ray\dist\pip-1.1\build\w3lib has version 1.2, which satisfies requirement w3lib (from Scrapy) Downloading/unpacking pyOpenSSL (from Scrapy) Downloading from URL pypi.python.org/packages/source/p/pyOpenSSL/pyOpenSSL-0.13.tar.gz#md5=767bca18a71178ca353dff9e10941929 (from pypi.python.org/simple/pyOpenSSL/) Running setup.py egg_info for package pyOpenSSL running egg_info creating pip-egg-info\pyOpenSSL.egg-info writing pip-egg-info\pyOpenSSL.egg-info\PKG-INFO writing top-level names to pip-egg-info\pyOpenSSL.egg-info\top_level.txt writing dependency_links to pip-egg-info\pyOpenSSL.egg-info\dependency_links.txt writing manifest file 'pip-egg-info\pyOpenSSL.egg-info\SOURCES.txt' warning: manifest_maker: standard file '-c' not found error: Could not find 'openssl.exe' </code></pre> <p>Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:</p> <pre><code>running egg_info creating pip-egg-info\pyOpenSSL.egg-info writing pip-egg-info\pyOpenSSL.egg-info\PKG-INFO writing top-level names to pip-egg-info\pyOpenSSL.egg-info\top_level.txt writing dependency_links to pip-egg-info\pyOpenSSL.egg-info\dependency_links.txt writing manifest file 'pip-egg-info\pyOpenSSL.egg-info\SOURCES.txt' warning: manifest_maker: standard file '-c' not found error: Could not find 'openssl.exe' </code></pre> <hr> <pre><code>Command python setup.py egg_info failed with error code 1 in C:\Ray\dist\pip-1.1\build\pyOpenSSL Exception information: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\pip-1.1-py2.7.egg\pip\basecommand.py", line 104, in main status = self.run(options, args) File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\pip-1.1-py2.7.egg\pip\commands\install.py", line 245, in run requirement_set.prepare_files(finder, force_root_egg_info=self.bundle, bundle=self.bundle) File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\pip-1.1-py2.7.egg\pip\req.py", line 1009, in prepare_files req_to_install.run_egg_info() File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\pip-1.1-py2.7.egg\pip\req.py", line 225, in run_egg_info command_desc='python setup.py egg_info') File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\pip-1.1-py2.7.egg\pip\__init__.py", line 256, in call_subprocess % (command_desc, proc.returncode, cwd)) InstallationError: Command python setup.py egg_info failed with error code 1 in C:\Ray\dist\pip-1.1\build\pyOpenSSL </code></pre>
