Pyglet does not install on Python 2.7 on Windows 7 64-bit #488

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
To reproduce:
1. Download pyglet-1.1.4.msi at http://www.pyglet.org/download.html.
2. Double-click the installer.
3. A message pops up: "pyglet requires Python 2.4 or later. The installation 
will be aborted."

I get the same issue on Windows 7 32 bit also

I presume this is all well-understood by the authors, but just in case extra 
data is handy:

On Windows XP, the msi runs OK, but only offers to install for Python 2.5 or 
2.6. 

Python 2.7, which is installed on this machine, is not offered as a choice.

Installing from source (e.g. using pip) works just fine on Python 2.7.

I am getting same issue and i am going to give up on python and go back to c 
soon. It is not worth the effort to try and install all of these modules if 
they don't work

The pyglet installer does not support Python 3 because pyglet does not support 
python 3. The installer error should probably be changed to say "pyglet 
requires Python 2.4 or later Python 2 versions".

Here is a hackishly InstEdited version that installs and works with Python 2.7:

http://celeron.55.lt/~celeron55/random/2011-08/pyglet-1.1.4-py27quickfix.msi

NOTE: It does not work with Python 2.6 and it is not able to uninstall itself.

Celeron55, thanks for that hack--it worked very nicely for Python 2.7.2 on 
Windows 7 x64 for me. I hope it can be incorporated into the next Pyglet 
release so those who are keeping up with the latest 2.x release aren't forced 
to use hacks to get this cool library to work!

Thanks celeron55!
It's a shame the official installer does not work.

I still can't install pyglet...same error all the time. Can anybody help me?

I don't know who built the previous installer's but I don't have the ability to 
do it. On the other hand as pyglet requires no compilation it is quite simple 
to use the setup.py script in the source download:
python setup.py build
python setup.py install

i was having the same error, i found that i can install pyglet if i am running 
python 2.5.4 x86 version instead of x64 or a later release such as python 2.7
i hope this helps some people

I was asked for the hacked installer by e-mail as the celeron.55.lt server was 
down, so I uploaded it here too: 
http://ompldr.org/vZ2p4cA/pyglet-1.1.4-py27quickfix.msi

Is the pyglet still dead?  Or is installation of all python module 
intentionally obfuscated to compensate for the ease of use of python 
programming?   I just downloaded the Pyglet windows installer MSI to work with 
Python(x,y) 2.7.3.  Aborted with message 
"pyglet requires Python 2.4 or later. The installation will be aborted."

Honestly, I love the Python language, but the never ending module issues are a 
nightmare and I am probably going to another language to actually get some work 
done (I came to pyglet after frustration with Pygame installation numpy and 
color errors) because Pyglet  advertises 'no dependencies)

Error messages attached:

Addendum:  I just installed pyglet from the following URL and it seems to 
install and then import OK with Python(x,y) 2.7.3, but I have not yet tried to 
use it for anything (I know nothing about Pyglet...yet):

I had this same error and the problem was Windows did not have Python in the 
Environment Variable path for Python 2.7.

This site is good for anyone who doesn't know how to do it.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7054424/python-not-recognised-as-a-command
 Then I installed from the zip file NOT the .msi file.

Hello, I have Windowx XP Pro with two Pythons, 2.7.4 and 3.3.0, the first one 
being put into the PATH variable. For the latter I have renamed the 
Python33/python.exe file to Python33/python33.exe.
I have installed pyglet-1.1.4 to Python27 and pyglet-1.2a1 to Python33 without 
any problems via:
> PythonXX setup.py build
> PythonXX setup.py install
Seems to working properly.

Issue 622 has been merged into this issue.

The pyglet-1.1.4.msi installer only works with python versions 2.4, 2.5 or 2.6; 
if you wish to use python 2.7 please install from source.

Simply download the source tarball or zip, unpack it, enter the directory and 
run:
python setup.py install

Alternatively if you are familiar with pip, "pip install pyglet" will install 
pyglet-1.1.4.

I am new to Python and Pyglet. I'm using Python 2.7.5 (verified: python -V) on 
OS X 10.8.5 (Mountain Lion) and I've installing Pyglet from both the DMG 
(1.1.4) and also tried installing Pyglet from the source found in 
"pyglet-1.1.4.zip" and using "pip install pyglet" from the command line. 

Both say they install successfully. But when I try running a basic Hello world 
example from http://www.pyglet.org/doc/programming_guide/hello_world.html, I 
get this error:

Re: last comment

Try the following command to get the latest from the mercurial repo.
pip install hg+https://pyglet.googlecode.com/hg/

The pip package hasn't been updated in a long long time.
You will need mercurial installed and possibly the python mercurial package too.

Cheers,
Adam

Hi, all.

I'm running 64-bit Python on a Windows 7 64-bit machine (Python 2.7.5) and a 
Linux (crunchbang) 64-bit machine (Python 2.7.3). In crunchbang I used the 
Debian repo to install pyglet, and it works well. In Windows I found three ways 
to install Pyglet that seemed to work equally well (well enough to run 
examples, at least):

1. Christoph Gohlke's excellent http repo of precompiled binary installers: 
http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pyglet

2. The pyglet 1.2 alpha: 
http://code.google.com/p/pyglet/downloads/list?q=1.2alpha1

3. The pyglet development version: http://pyglet.googlecode.com/archive/tip.zip 
(easily installed using pip, as described at the bottom of 
http://www.pyglet.org/download.html)

-Ravi
