I am trying to install quickUMLS on my windows 10 desktop. I am able to follow the installation instructions on README.md up to Step 3, with a small tweak in the setup.py that bypasses encoding error (I added the option errors="surrogateescape" in line 42. Somehow error="ignore" did not work). At Step 4 "Create a QuickUMLS Installation", I got an error that says:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'quickumls_simstring
Then I tried to install quickumls_simstring by pip install quickumls_simstring but got the encoding error:
UnicodeDecodeError: 'charmap' codec can't decode byte 0x9d in position 471: character maps to <undefined>
Then I tried to download the source files of quickumls_simstring and ran python setup.py install. I got an error that says
Unable to find vcvarsall.bat
I installed Microsoft Visual Studio 2019 which made this error go away upon rerunning the quickumls_simstring installation command, but I got a new error:
quickumls_simstring/export.cpp(7): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'iconv.h': No such file or directory
I have libiconv installed but this iconv.h error still persisted. I was able to locate iconv.h in my anaconda3\Library\include directory. I cannot figure out how to resolve this. Please help me, thanks!
I currently do not have access to a windows machine to reproduce your error. Are you sure the iconv.h is included in your path? Also, have you tried following the instructions from here?
