ghost commented 10 years ago

Hi,

I am trying to install pysctp on windows 7. I have python 2.7.8 installed. D:\userdata\rkommine\Desktop\pysctp-0.6>python --version Python 2.7.8

When I download the pysctp-0.6.tar.gz & extracted it & run the following command: D:\userdata\rkommine\Desktop\pysctp-0.6>python setup.py install running install running build running build_py creating build creating build\lib.win32-2.7 copying sctp.py -> build\lib.win32-2.7 running build_ext building '_sctp' extension error: Unable to find vcvarsall.bat

Could you please help how to install this modules on windows?

Thanks in advance.

Regards, Ramakrishna

Hi,

After going through suggestions posted in various pages I have installed cygwin containing gcc,gdb,make & mingw. After that I tried the following options:

D:\userdata\rkommine\Desktop\pysctp-0.6>python setup.py install build --compiler=cygwin running install running build running build_py running build_ext building '_sctp' extension C:\cygwin\bin\gcc.exe -mcygwin -mdll -O -Wall -I. -I/usr/include -IC:\Python27\include -IC:\Python27\PC -c _sctp.c -o build\temp.wi 32-2.7\Release_sctp.o gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-mcygwin' error: command 'C:\cygwin\bin\gcc.exe' failed with exit status 1

D:\userdata\rkommine\Desktop\pysctp-0.6>python setup.py install build --compiler=mingw32 running install running build running build_py running build_ext building '_sctp' extension C:\cygwin\bin\gcc.exe -mno-cygwin -mdll -O -Wall -I. -I/usr/include -IC:\Python27\include -IC:\Python27\PC -c _sctp.c -o build\temp win32-2.7\Release_sctp.o gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-mno-cygwin' error: command 'C:\cygwin\bin\gcc.exe' failed with exit status 1

Could anyone please help on this installation issue.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Just for reference: you can fix the issue you're having by going to your Python installation (C:\Python27 for example)\Libs\distutils and open up cygwinccompiler.py and remove all occurences of -mcygwin, but it still will not help. It will say something about not being able to include net/sctp.h, and you can't really fix that: https://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-02/msg00010.html

pysctp wraps the Linux kernel SCTP socket, but Windows has no SCTP implementation matching the Linux kernel API. For this reason, pysctp won't work on Windows.
