Trying to install pip without internet, so I downloaded the tar.gz package from pypi.org and when installing the pip setup file by running "python setup.py install" I get "No Module Named 'Setuptools'".
So I downloaded setuptools.tar.gz from pypi.org and ran the "python setup.py install" but this time I get a syntax error. Python version running is 3.5.2.

It looks like you're trying to install setuptools 57.0.0 on Python 3.5. As of setuptools 51.0.0,
Breaking Changes
#2435: Require Python 3.6 or later.
You need a version of setuptools that's 50.0.0 or older.
For what it's worth, the specific error you're getting is because of PEP 526, which was added to Python officially in 3.6. But even if you patched that somehow (and I don't recommend trying), you're likely to run into other problems. You just need an older setuptools or a newer Python.
Wrong setuptools version was used. Python 3.5 uses setuptools version 50.0.0 or older. Thanks to Silvio Mayolo.

I'm trying to run code from a repository from 2016 that doesn't label what versions of anything it's using, but I think I figured out that it was using Python version 3.4. I went ahead and installed that python version, but when I went to install the dependencies, starting with Numpy, I got this error when running
pip install numpy
The error is as follows
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Not sure what to do. My machine is a windows-10-64bit Python version is 3.4.0 and pip version is 1.5.4. If anyone cares to see if there's a more holistic way to get this code to run, this is the repo. https://github.com/czhuang/ChordRipple
The setup script for the version of Numpy you're trying to install is using an f-string. However, f-strings were introduced in Python 3.6, so your version does not support this. Installing an older version of numpy should work. Version 1.15.4 should be the latest one that supports Python 3.4.
pip install numpy==1.15.4 should do the trick.
I setup a new Debian 10 (Buster) instance on AWS EC2, and was able to install a pip3 package that depended on netifaces, but when I came back to it the next day the package is breaking reporting an error in netifaces. If I try to run pip3 install netifaces I get the same error:
~$ pip3 install netifaces

unescape = getattr(html, 'unescape', html_parser.HTMLParser().unescape)
AttributeError: 'HTMLParser' object has no attribute 'unescape'
HTMLParser().unescape was removed in Python 3.9. Compare the code in Python 3.8 vs Python 3.9.
The error seems to be a bug in setuptools. Try to upgrade setuptools. Or use Python 3.8.
I was facing this issue in PyCharm 2018. Apart from upgrading setuptools as mentioned above, I also had to upgrade to PyCharm 2020.3.4 to solve this issue. Related bug on PyCharm issue tracker: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/PY-39579
Hope this helps someone avoid spending hours trying to debug this.
I had python3.6 and related packages through deb management.
Needed python3.9 for side project and the solution to fix pip and AttributeError: 'HTMLParser' object has no attribute 'unescape'
was to update pip for python3.9 locally for one user:
python3.9 -m pip install --upgrade pip
now installing python3.9 version of the pip-packages work:
python3.9 -m pip install --target=~/.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages numpy
Downgrading to any older python3 version is not the solution and most of the time upgrading setuptools won't fix the issue. The proper solution that worked for me to work with pip using python3.9 is the following on Ubuntu18:
locate /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/setuptools/py33compact.py33
and change
# unescape = getattr(html, 'unescape', html_parser.HTMLParser().unescape) # comment out this line
unescape = getattr(html, 'unescape', None)
if unescape is None:
# HTMLParser.unescape is deprecated since Python 3.4, and will be removed
# from 3.9.
unescape = html_parser.HTMLParser().unescape
I have looked at all the forums, but nothing has worked so far. I have spent hours trying to install it so any help would be appreciated.
i have downloaded and unzipped tweepy, went on to the command prompt, typed "cd tweepy-master". This works, but when i type "python setup.py install" or "python setup.py build".
When i type "python setup.py install" the error says.

I saw alot of people saying to use pip, but i am struggling to install that to.
Thanks for the help
pip is the good way to install a package. If you are not interested then you can install from source.
But you have to remember that, If you are using virtualenv or virtualenvwrapper then you can use python setup.py install otherwise you should use sudo python setup.py install.
If you are windows user then, open your cmd with administator privilege and type python setup.py install.
Have you installed Python using the Windows installer from python.org?
Cause this comes with pip already bundled into it. (I can not check the exact location atm, as I am on a Mac, but according to this SO post it should be located under C:\PythonX.X\Scripts, if you kept the default install location - otherwise it should be located in <path-to-python>\Scripts of course).
Otherwise pip can easily installed using this script. Simply call python get-pip.py in the script location and pip should be available afterwards (if not directly from commandline with pip, than at least by using python -m pip.)
Having pip finally available, you should be able to easily install tweepy calling pip install tweepy (or python -m pip install tweepy respectively).
For further information on pip and the other options to install it, check https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/.
PS. If installing the package via pip does not work, this may be a compatibility issue. According to the tweepy github-page python 3.2 is not amongst the supported python versions. So if your portable python really has an interpreter versioned 3.2.... (you can check the version of your interpreter running python from cmd, which should print something like > Python 3.X.X), the package may not run properly at all (even if you can install it without a problem).
As the portable python apparently is no longer supported anyways, it may be worth trying a different solution. There are plenty suggested on the portable python website (I just know about Anaconda, but this works flawlessly). But if you only want to use python with tweepy and don't need anything like scipy or numpy, I'd suggest simply downloading the installer from the official website. As said, pip gets shipped with the standard installation and can be used to easily install most of the packages you will need. (Except for e.g. the abovementioned scipy/numpy, which require additional non-python libraries whose "manual" installation may not be worth the trouble and hence legitimates the use of a more comprehensive environment like Anaconda).
I am trying to install a software using pip install and my python and pip versions are 3.5. but when I run sudo pip install -e . I get the following error.
Traceback (most recent call last):

Why Do I get an error with python 2.7 and please some one could sortout my issue.
Your pip version and python versions are separate. It looks like your package requires exactly pip 8.1.0. You have to either upgrade/downgrade to that version first, or modify the software to work with whichever pip you have available.
Also, it may be easier to install the software in a virtual environment rather than system/global one. Changing the system version of pip may break either current apps, or the future pip package updates.
I have a CentOS server (5.6) which has Python 2.4.3 on it. I have another local installation of Python (2.7.5) installed in /opt and soft-links created as follows /usr/local/bin/python2.7 and /usr/local/python2.7. I want to install python-requests using pip. While installing using the command pip install requests, I get the following error:

I'm assuming it's still trying to use Python 2.4. I checked here which says 2.4 isn't supported. So how do I run the pip install command but use python2.7 instead?
you need to set the PYTHONPATH / PYTHONHOME like here
you can also try to install virtualenv
You probably should (re)install a new version of pip explicitly for the new Python version. On pip installation instructions page it says that
pip works with CPython versions 2.6, 2.7, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 and also pypy.
While installing, be sure to use the newer version of Python instead of the old one.
