Python 3.3, pip is installed and PATH is:

C:\Python33\Scripts

I have downloaded visual c++ 2010, do I need to change any configuration or add the .bat file to python 33 package from vc++?

When I try to install pyodbc I get the following:

  • You need to add the python script path (where `pip` is installed) to your `PATH` environment variable. – Wolph Jan 18 '15 at 19:22
  • i see python27 and python34 packages in my c drive ...i have deleted the other package ...while in my system variables it points to python27 and python27/pip ..still when i do pip after deleting the other package i still get pip not found as an internal or external command – elyon Jan 18 '15 at 19:23
  • Try this guide to install `pip` properly: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4750806/how-to-install-pip-on-windows – Wolph Jan 18 '15 at 19:25
  • I have edited my question and have added the PATH variable the path to my scripts folder still i get the error (please see the updated question ) – elyon Jan 19 '15 at 15:28

I had this problem under Python 2.7.9 using SQLAlchemy and the solution was to unpack the pyodbc .egg file in my site-packages folder. I must note that I didn't compile it myself, I downloaded the binary (pyodbc-3.0.7.win32-py2.7.exe) and I installed it using easy_install pyodbc-3.0.7.win32-py2.7.exe

P.S: Newer .whl type installers can be found here, you can install them using pip install [.whl file]. That might also help you get pyodbc installed.

Navigate to the \Lib\site-packages folder for your current virtualenv (or under your main Python installation folder if you're not using a virtualenv).

Rename pyodbc-3.0.7-py2.7-win32.egg to pyodbc-3.0.7-py2.7-win32.zip.

Extract the zip file and place the contents directly in your \Lib\site-packages folder.

After I did this the pyodbc module go recognised and SQLAlchemy could import it.
