The quick install guide for pyOIDC says to run python setup.py install (after installing the prerequisites).

When I try this I get :

RuntimeError: chmod error
'chmod' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Obviously, it looks like it's expecting Linux, but I'm running Windows.

This question (which I needed for one of the prerequisites) has an answer saying:

If you don't already have a C/C++ development environment installed that is compatible with the Visual Studio binaries distributed by Python.org, then you should stick to installing only pure Python packages or packages for which a Windows binary is available.

Well, I don't have a C/C++ development environment installed that is compatible with the Visual Studio binaries distributed by Python.org (at least, I assume I don't, and that I'd know if I did!).

So is there a pure Python package for pyOIDC, or is there a Windows installer, or is pyOIDC just not compatible with Windows?!

  • It looks like this is actually a PyCrypto problem. We can download PyCrypto 2.6 from here: http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/modules.shtml#pycrypto, but pyOIDC requires 2.6.1, and this is what triggers the chmod error. – Range vs. Range Jan 11 '15 at 08:27
