Thanks for posting the issue. So, you want to build from the source. We shall reproduce the error and get back to you. Until then, try pip install delphivcl for an easy installation.

[limelect]

Tried your suggestion pip install delphivcl

[Priyatham10]

Please try the same pip install delphivcl by getting out of that DelphiVCL4Python-main folder. It'll be installed successfully..

[limelect]

I do not understand in which folder am I supposed to put the source.? G:/python is NOT the python. my python is on C:\ So what you suggest is to put the source in c:\python?

[limelect]

tried above C:\Python\Python36-32

What a directory has to do with install?

[Priyatham10]

As you already tried installing from the source using setup.py, when you install it in the repository directory, it installs from the repository's setup file instead of the remote pip wheel file. Please create a new conda environment and try to install directly using pip install delphivcl without downloading the repository zip file..

[limelect]

Sorry I am a Delphi developer and I am not aware of "conda environment " If it will not be strait forward I will give up. P.S I have installed already some other packages with guiPY with no problems thanks

[Priyatham10]

Installing conda is very straight-forward. Go to this link: https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/miniconda.html#latest-miniconda-installer-links to download the installer. Go to https://conda.io/projects/conda/en/stable/user-guide/install/index.html#regular-installation for Installation instructions for OS platform of your choice.

Finally checkout their cheatsheet to create new "conda environments" at: https://conda.io/projects/conda/en/stable/user-guide/cheatsheet.html

[limelect]

Thanks

[limelect]

well i decided to wait for a fix

[lmbelo]

Please, share which Python version and O.S. you are using.

[lmbelo]

Working fine here:

[lmbelo]

You are attempting to install an old cached version. You must install the latest one.

[limelect]

Python 3.6.3 i can't update since i use window 7 and not going to change

[limelect]

For some reason, I am not notified of response

[lmbelo]

You can try it on Python 3.7 onward.

[limelect]

I already checked on this page all need above window 7 https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/ And Python 3.7 do not have an installation If you know of one that I can download with the installation P.S I do not understand the fundamental problem that Delphi need command line see my first problem

[lmbelo]

Sorry, I just reviewed your post and I see that you're using a cached version (old version) of Delphi VCL. Try to reinstall it to the latest version.

[limelect]

Old version is D10.2.3 OLD? Am I to buy a new Delphi? I still do not get it What has setup.py to do with Delphi? I cannot install your PYTHON software

[limelect]

!9.07.2022 the time i down loaded

[limelect]

It was my Python version. Now I have ver 3.8 for window 7

[limelect]

Fixed
