unable to build wheel for fbprophet while trying to install Kats in Win 10

[kunalrayind]

1. My environment is Win 10, with conda 4.9.2 and Python 3.7.6
2. While trying to install Kats (pip install kats), I am getting the error: Building wheel for fbprophet (setup.py) ... error
3. More lines from the error message are in attached file
   Kats_error.txt
4. I had an older working fbprophet, faced same errors in trying to upgrade (pip install --upgrade fbprophet).
5. Anybody know how to fix this?

Hi @kunalrayind @sathish331977 , thank you for the issue, please see:
#49

Thanks MoKazemi9, but following the suggested steps did not solve my problem.
It seems the problem is not with pystan or gcc.
Please note that fbprophet installed successfully (version 0.7.1)
I am putting the error lines below:
File "D:\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\setuptools\msvc.py", line 1623, in return_env
if self.vs_ver >= 14 and isfile(self.VCRuntimeRedist):
File "D:\Anaconda3\lib\genericpath.py", line 30, in isfile
st = os.stat(path)
TypeError: stat: path should be string, bytes, os.PathLike or integer, not NoneType

win10，python 3.8.10 . conda

pytho3.6 不OK，因为会有from future import annotations，，，
所以做了新镜像 conda create --name kats python=3.8
如果直接安装kats会有问题：
其中主要为ERROR: Failed building wheel for fbprophet

因此先进行fbprophet安装，其中需要首先按照pystan，采用conda 安装
python -m pip install -U pip
conda install -c conda-forge pystan
pip install fbprophet

安装完成done，但是依赖库中文件有缺失，然后将github上kats文件中源代码放入所在依赖库

Python 3.7.10 | packaged by conda-forge | (default, Oct 5 2021, 16:32:37) [MSC v.1916 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32

Update: As far as I know, it's not the Kats issue though I did not solve it yet on my pc.
It is problem when installing pystan and scipy.
I followed the steps inside the page to install pystan , I used conda install in all steps, including the 1st step to install "mingw-w64 compiler". But got error "WARNING:pystan:MSVC compiler is not supported".

Kats is now on 0.2.0. Resolving old 0.1.0 installation issues.
