I installed this python package using pip that was compatible with Python 2.7. I tried newer versions of the python-docx but those ones did not download properly. Only version 0.8.7 worked as so I installed it using:
pip install python-docx==0.8.7
But I think it installed a 32 bit version of this package and I am using a 64 bit machine. I know this because while I tried to run my python program using this package I got the error:
from lxml import etree
ImportError: DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application.
This is where the package got downloaded to: C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\lxml-3.3.5-py2.7-win32.egg
Anyone have the link to the 64 bit version (win_amd64.whl) of this package? I tried searching in this link(https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/) but could not find the package I was looking for.
I get "ImportError: No module named ghostscript" when i try to build my python program using cx_freeze.
I'm using Windows 7 64 bit
I have python 3.6.2 32 bit
I installed ghostscript module using pip
I installed Ghostscript 9.21
Previously, everything worked fine with python 3.6.2 64 bit, but now i need to create a 32 bit executable
I'm learning python, so do not omit obvious answers
Download the .whl file from the link below,
https://pypi.python.org/packages/6a/2d/e2d7474bea24d223d5dc86d51241fd305b75a9168f2e1d7ee07b883c80a5/python3_ghostscript-0.5.0-py3-none-any.whl#md5=0e3a24a374c0d9cc1f2008801ead6927
Open cmd in the same directory of the .whl file and run this command:
pip install python3_ghostscript-0.5.0-py3-none-any.whl
Is there a pip install for py2exe 64 bit that is for the 64 bit python 2.7? The 32 bit py2exe doesn't work for me, but I keep getting exceptions when I try to install the 64 bit version. I downloaded the 64 bit py2exe for python 2.7 from this site: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#py2exe but can't install it
The error I am getting using python -m pip install py2exe:
Runtime Error: This package requires Python 3.3 or later
Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1
Note: The following works for the 32 bit but I need the 64 bit
pip install http://sourceforge.net/projects/py2exe/files/latest/download?source=files
I am running 64 bit python 2.7 and am trying to install 64 bit py2exe
Any easy pip install for it?
I have found an easy way to install py2exe 64 Bits in Windows 7 or greater.
Go to Official Download Webpage
Download your version: py2exe-0.6.9.win64-py2.7.amd64.exe (There are other versions: py2exe-0.6.9.win64-py2.5.amd64.msi and py2exe-0.6.9.win64-py2.6.amd64.exe)
Run the installation
And enjoy!
Hope this help you like did to me.
I am trying to install mezzanine on windows 7 64 bit. I have installed pil for python 2.7 64 bit from here.
I recreated my virtualenv, but i still get this error
i know that error is caused by pil but i installed it and it didn't fix it. I have a C++ compiler installed, i do a lot of C++, i have codeblocks and visual studio, so i don't think i need to install mingw or whatever.
From my personal experience - don't use 64 bit Python. It will create many problems. Use 32 bit version and in most cases you will be fine.
I'm trying to install said library for use with Python. I tried downloading the executable installer for Windows, which runs, but says it doesn't find a Python installation. Then tried registering (http://effbot.org/zone/python-register.htm) Python, but the script says it can't register (although the keys appear in my register).
Then I tried downloading the source package: I run the setup.py build and it works, but when I run setup.py install it says the following:
running install
running build
running build_py
running build_ext
building '_imaging' extension
error: Unable to find vcvarsall.bat
What can I do?
UPDATE (May 2014): Like said by some comments and answers, PIL is currently unmantained, and the way to go now is to use Pillow (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Pillow/, pip install pillow).
I found a working win7 binary here: Unofficial Windows Binaries for Python Extension Packages It's from Christoph Gohlke at UC Irvine. There are binaries for python 2.5, 2.6, 2.7 , 3.1 and 3.2 for both 32bit and 64 bit windows.
There are a whole lot of other compiled packages here, too.
Be sure to uninstall your old PILfirst.
If you used easy_install:
easy_install -mnX pil
And then remove the egg in python/Lib/site-packages
Be sure to remove any other failed attempts. I had moved the _image dll into Python*.*/DLLs and I had to remove it.
I've just had the same problem (with Python 2.7 and PIL for this versions, but the solution should work also for 2.6) and the way to solve it is to copy all the registry keys from:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Python
to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python
Worked for me
solution found at the address below so credits should go there:

Compiling PIL on Windows x64 is apparently a bit of a pain. (Well, compiling anything on Windows is a bit of a pain in my experience. But still.) As well as PIL itself you'll need to build many dependencies. See these notes from the mailing list too.
There's an unofficial precompiled binary for x64 linked from this message, but I haven't tried it myself. Might be worth a go if you don't mind the download being from one of those slightly dodgy file-upload sites. Other than that... well, you could always give up and instead the 32-bit Python binary instead.
If you installed a win64 python, you need a win64 PIL. The official PIL download site only has win32, as far as I can tell. The win32 installer will not see your 64-bit python installation.
No amount of tinkering with permissions or redistributables will fix this. You could use the win32 python instead (the Win64 python is mutant anyhow; Microsoft decided that C 'long' should be 32 bits in their 64-bit world, so python 'ints' are only 32 bits in Win64 python).
Since sizeof(long)!=sizeof(ptr) in win64, porting C extensions can be problematic, and will not be the same as porting them to linux 64. E.g. it seems that Win64 numpy is experimental/broken whereas linux64 numpy has been fine for years. My recommendation is if you use win64, stick with win32 python. If you want 64-bit python use linux.
I think I had a similar problem in the past, with another python library. I believe that it was a windows permission issue. Try adding "Users" to your python directory, and give them full access.
Make sure you have the Visual C++ Redistributable package installed on your machine.
Just got this error msg on my 32 bit Windows - I read the FAQ here: http://pythonware.com/products/pil/faq.htm and this sort of indicates that Windows is funny. Looked again at install pg and downloaded the Windows executable for Python26 # Python Imaging Library 1.1.7 for Python 2.6 (Windows only) - and the _imaging module gets installed when you run this. Should solve problem. So you can't just do the python setup.py install routine on: Python Imaging Library 1.1.7 Source Kit (all platforms) (November 15, 2009).
I was having the same problem so I decided to download the source kit and install it according to how you posted above...
Downloaded Source Kit
Opened command prompt on that folder and typed python setup.py build
Then I typed python setup.py install
It worked perfectly!
Now, some notes: when I typed python setup.py build, I saw that Microsoft Visual Studio v9.0 C compiler was being used to build everything.
So probably it's something with your compiler not correctly configured or something...
Anyways, that worked with me so thank you!
Pillow is new version
PIL-1.1.7.win-amd64-py2.x installers are available at
http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pil
http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/
press contrl F
type Pillow‑2.4.0.win‑amd64‑py3.3.exe
then click and downloadd the 64 bit version
Pillow is a replacement for PIL, the Python Image Library, which provides image processing functionality and supports many file formats.
Note: use from PIL import Image instead of import Image.
