I am trying to install Scrapy on Windows 7. Thanks to problems with the installation, I got to installing Twisted first. If i try
pip install twisted
I get "failed building wheel for Twisted". Is I came across suggestions: Installing twisted on python 3.5 and virtualenv using pip I downloaded the file Twisted-18.7.0-cp37-cp37m-win_amd64.whl and I would like to install Twisted via this wheel. How should I modify this command, so pip finds the file. Or where should I place the file?
pip install Twisted-18.7.0-cp37-cp37m-win_amd64.whl
I tried:
pip install twisted --no-index --find-links C:\Twisted-18.7.0-cp37-cp37m-win_amd64.whl
I get a response: 'URL "C:\Twisted-18.7.0-cp37-cp37m-win_amd64.whl" is ignored. It is either a non-existing path or lacks a specific scheme'. If I try:
pip install Twisted-18.7.0-cp37-cp37m-win_amd64.whl --no-index --find-links C:\Twisted-18.7.0-cp37-cp37m-win_amd64.whl
I get a response: Requirement 'Twisted.[..] looks like a filename, but the file does not exist'. The path is correct, so what am I doing wrong?
Turn on file extension displaying and double-check the extension of the downloaded file. – hoefling – 2018-09-17T22:03:20.523
I got file extensions displayed as standard, the filename is correct. – Casso – 2018-09-18T11:49:22.987
What does
python -c "import os; print(os.path.isfile(r'C:\Twisted-18.7.0-cp37-cp37m-win_amd64.whl'))"
return? – hoefling – 2018-09-18T12:01:05.623
