Getting an error installing

[bkenne]

I am getting an error message when attempting to install. Is there any advice you can offer? I am installing to Python 3.12.6.

C:\ms4w>pip install --no-cache-dir mod_wsgi Collecting mod_wsgi Downloading mod_wsgi-5.0.2.tar.gz (498 kB) Preparing metadata (setup.py) ... done Building wheels for collected packages: mod_wsgi Building wheel for mod_wsgi (setup.py) ... error error: subprocess-exited-with-error

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip. ERROR: Failed building wheel for mod_wsgi Running setup.py clean for mod_wsgi Failed to build mod_wsgi ERROR: Failed to build installable wheels for some pyproject.toml based projects (mod_wsgi)

Looking forward to your guidance.

Sincerely, Bryon

As the error says:

error: Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 or greater is required. Get it with "Microsoft C++ Build Tools": https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/visual-cpp-build-tools/

So do you have the Microsoft compiler environment installed and is it available within the user terminal environment for the user that you tried to do the build from?

If you believe it is, then try running command as:

pip install --no-cache-dir -vvv mod_wsgi

to get more verbose logging to get a better indication of the underlying error.

Thank you so much. I will further investigate and let you know how it goes!
