Hello, I am trying to install the cogsworth using the conda environment. But I run into this error:

  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

× Encountered error while generating package metadata.

I tried some ways to fix this error including changing the version of Python, and upgrading pip, setuptools, and wheel. but none of them worked. I appreciate your help with this issue.

Hi @saraghl - from the paths in your error message, am I correct in thinking you're installing this on Windows?

COSMIC and Gala (the two core dependencies of cogsworth) have some trouble installing on Windows because the C and fortran compilers are not available by default. (The error message you see above is for the installation of COSMIC)

I think some people have had success using Windows Subsystem for Linux in the past to get around that, you could perhaps try installing that (here's a comment from Gala about it)? Or alternatively if you have access to a non-Windows machine the installation should work there!

Hi @saraghl, just checking in whether you've had any luck with this?

Hello Tom, I hope you are doing well.

I installed Linux based on your advice, and fortunately, I was able to easily install Cogsworth afterward.

Thank you for your help.

Bests, Sara
