2015-10-28 Issues with Python 3.5¶
I’m still trying to get a proper distribution of Python 3.5 on Windows. I had a couple of issues so far. Most of them come from some DLL which cannot be found.
pyzmq. The version I got from Unofficial Windows Binaries for Python Extension Packages did not work and I had to install the PyPi version which proposes versions for Windows.
pywin32
is now available from
PyPi.
Some DLLs might have to be copied
from
C:\Python35_x64\Lib\site-packages\pywin32_system32
to C:\Python35_x64
unless the first path is added to PATH
.
I don’t do that because I have multiple versions of Python on the same machine.
Some parts of matplotlib are still failing due to some issues with DLLs. The following instructions fails:
import matplotlib.colorbar
I tried to follow some solutions from stackoverflow but it still fails for me. One link http://prod.openclassrooms.com/forum/sujet/matplotlib-sous-windows. However, this error happened with version 1.4, it does not happen with matplotlib 1.5.
