pip install pyodbc fails on Windows #77

I am having the same issue. reading manifest file 'pyodbc.egg-info\SOURCES.txt'

It looks like you're both using Python 3.5. Does this also happen with older Python versions? |
I experienced the issue only with Python 3.5 |
I am on Windows Python 3.5, and I get the same issue

Same problem here. C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35\Scripts>pip install pyodbc

There is no wheel (binary distribution) for 3.5 on PyPI. So while they are not provided you can use unofficial binaries from here. Just download the matching file for Python 3.5 and install it with |
Thanks schlamar. That worked nicely. |
Also thank you, I searched for hours for an answer on this! |
Thanks this solved my problem too! "Once more into the breech" solving problems one at a time, together! |
schlamar the world needs more people like you :) |
Hi, This also happen on Python 2.6 Regards. |
@mkleehammer I love pyodbc. Is there any way you could put a wheel for Python 3.5 up on PyPI? This would make it much easier to build upon! |
I too would appreciate a whl for this on pypi |
This is one of the first things to appear when googling the error message about buffer.cpp cannot be absolute with pyodbc. If you download the source .tar.gz file from pypi, open I don't know why those files are listed, if you look at the end file paths they match files already listed a bit more down in the SOURCES.txt file. |
@schlamar I installed pyodbc for my python 3.6. But when I am not able to use that in my code. It says, "the definition was found at C:\pyodbc.pyd.. (which can't be opened because it is a compiled extension)". Please help |
@PythonNovice5 How did you install pyodbc? I am now providing binary wheels for Windows and macOS for most versions of Python. If you did not use pip, please try again with: pip install pyodbc (If you ever need to upgrade pyodbc but it is already installed, use: pip install --upgrade pyodbc) |
@mkleehammer I installed it using "python -m pip install pyodbc" command as "pip install -U pyodbc" (-U to install upgraded version) gives 'fatal launch error' for python 3.6. Thanks for the wheels anyway, it was a great relief after searching for the solution for hours. |
Note for users of This error will occur if you try to run PyODBC under tox on Windows, and its because tox is actually suppressing the I did a brief write up on that here: www.kidstrythisathome.com/2017/02/tox-pyodbc-and-appveyor.html |
@LegoStormtroopr Wow - I did not know that. Thanks. We should get that on the Wiki somewhere. Just to clarify - pyodbc itself isn't looking for any environment variables. I would bet that the driver was installed with those in the odbcinst.ini. |
Not quite sure if this is related, but when I ran: |
The error is because something was trying to build pyodbc instead of downloading a prebuilt binary for Windows. If you are trying to build it from source, then you need to make sure you have everything configured for development. The Building pyodbc from source page should be up to date, but feel free to update it. However, if you are just looking to use pyodbc, you can install a pre-built binary using pip:
There are pre-built binaries for most Python versions, both 32-bit and 64-bit, for Windows. There are also macOS builds. |
Hi, WARNING: Requirement 'pyodbc-4.0.32-cp39-cp39-win_amd64.whl' looks like a filename, but the file does not exist |
place the wheel file where python was installed and environment variable set to , then open cmd and go to that path and run pip install filename , it will work as it worked for me |
you are superb man it solved my problem as well !!! kudos pal |
With latest Python version 3.11.0 Fails with following command: Collecting pyodbc Building wheel for pyodbc (pyproject.toml) did not run successfully. note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip. |
Tried installing .whl manually from location. https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pyodbc PS D:\Py> pip install pyodbc-4.0.32-cp310-cp310-win_amd64.whl So I guess I need to wait for cp311? |
I have the same exceptions. |
I have same problem too! |
pyodbc 4.0,35 has just been released on PyPi, including Windows wheels for Python 3.11. Please try installing pyodbc again in the usual manner |
this fails consistently on 2 different machines one Windows Server 2012R2 and one Win8.1 the error is the same.
