Error when trying to install Associate

[pepsng]

The image is pretty much self explanatory. Running on Windows 10, 64bit orange installer with no PATH association, also running Anaconda on the same laptop. First time I use Orange for an assignment and throws the error.

Any clues? already did a full conda/orange/python wipe and clean install.

[New Update] Tried to install it via pip install Orange3-Associate in Anaconda Prompt, didn't work and asked for Microsoft Visual C++ 2014 or greater. Installed latest VC_redist, same error.

I am slightly confused. You installed Orange with .exe and you have Anaconda pre-installed? (this could be one source of the problem) But also you have tried installing via Anaconda? Did you follow the instructions for installing Orange on Anaconda? And you tried to install with pip in that environment?

[ales-erjavec]

This is strange. In the dialog you have python -m pip install rules association Orange3-Associate==1.1.8. The rules association part should not be there in the command. The error comes from trying to install a non-existing association package. rules is a completely unrelated package. You might have been able to add the rules to the installation via Add-more button/dialog, but not association.

What steps exactly did you perform for installation?

[ajdapretnar]

@ales-erjavec Thanks for noticing this. We noticed the same issue in https://github.com/biolab/orange3-text/issues/633. Seems like Orange adds some arguments randomly in the add-on dialogue?

@ales-erjavec we have seen the same error already https://github.com/biolab/orange3-text/issues/633. In this case word, text was inserted in the command pip install text orange3-text. I and @ajdapretnar also taught that it might be due to using Add-more but I think it is not the case (since the person reporting the issue tried several different ways and always got the same behavior). I tried to reproduce the error but couldn't.

I think it is a hidden bug in Orange. Hope someone from the team can reproduce it.

If you manage Orange installation through the command line be sure to work in the correct environment (Orange is installed in a separate environment distinct from the anaconda base/root). There should be a Orange Command Prompt entry in the start menu. Run any commands in that.

I had anaconda previously installed. Then downloaded and ran Orange.exe from the page, which installed miniconda. At this point, Orange ran well but couldn't install Associate, other add on Geo was running smoothly. Cleaned everything. Now I just installed anaconda again, and ran the conda clean --all ; conda clean --packages ; conda clean --tarballs

just ran the .exe file from the website. Nothing fancy.

@pepsng Can you open Options->Settings from the Orange's menu bar and in the Add-ons tab check that the Pip Install arguments: edit field is empty.

Now it won't even open :/ I think I'll learn to use Rstudio properly and reinstall Orange after formatting my SSD in a couple months. Thanks anyways guys!

This did the job. After reseting my whole python/conda programs, installed miniconda then the navigator from prompt, and everything works just fine now. Thanks a lot!
