I got this message Does anybody know what's the problem?

I is possible that the libraries are not correctly installed. Could you do an

ls -l /Users/mazing/.pyenv/versions/cnn-hw1/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mosek/

to check if libmosek64.8.0.dylib and libmosekxx8_0.dylib are present. if they are, do a

otool -L /Users/mazing/.pyenv/versions/cnn-hw1/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mosek/libmosekxx8_0.dylib

to see if it can find the dependant libraries.

I'm having the same problem with pyenv. Any clue on what is the solution?

pip install --user git+http://github.com/MOSEK/Mosek.pip
Collecting git+http://github.com/MOSEK/Mosek.pip
  Cloning http://github.com/MOSEK/Mosek.pip to /tmp/pip-e40c7chc-build

Installing collected packages: Mosek
  Running setup.py install for Mosek ... done
Successfully installed Mosek-8.0.83

Everything seem to work fine and before doing this I also tried directly the python setup.py install --user from the installation folder.

If I pip freeze the API doesn't show up.

 pip freeze

Ah. Found the solution. Just remove the --user from the command. The libraries end up in the wrong folder under ./local and they don't pop into ./pyenv

The README assumes that the Python installation is global. I have added a note the README about local Python installations.
