I installed python 2.7.9 instead of 3.4.3 due to module xlutils not working on 3.4.3 and from the time I installed python 2.7.9 and I just can't install the related modules to it by using pip install and I added the ;C:\Python27 to the system path. what am I missing here coz it keeps on telling me this error: 'pip is not recognized as an internal or external command

pip only started coming standard in Python 3.4. For 3.3 and below you will have to install it yourself. https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/installing.html – Alecg_O Mar 30 '15 at 12:48

@Alecg_O pip should come as standard for 2.7.9 no need to install it on top. – NDevox Mar 30 '15 at 12:49

I used to have 3.4.3 but coz I wanted to work with xlutils I installed python 2.7.9 – Mahmoud Ayman Mar 30 '15 at 12:56

Pip.exe is in my Python27/Scripts folder already – Mahmoud Ayman Mar 30 '15 at 13:00

My point was more that you should uninstall python 3.4 if you won't use it, just to be safe and make sure the pip from 3.4 doesn't clash with 2.7 – NDevox Mar 30 '15 at 13:05

Pip is not in C:\Python27
.
It's in C:\Python27\Scripts
.
Check that folder to make sure there is a pip.exe, if there is then it should have installed fine, and make sure that C:\Python27\Scripts
is in your PATH
.

I have pip.exe inC:\Python27\Scripts and the path you mean the "System path" or "User Path" ? – Mahmoud Ayman Mar 30 '15 at 12:58

I added the C:\Python27\Scripts to system path by appending that at the end of the system path but it now tells me "Attribute Error: 'module' object has no attribute 'wraps' – Mahmoud Ayman Mar 30 '15 at 13:02

Doing a little digging I found these two links: https://ask.openstack.org/en/question/56412/juno-devstack-install-failure-attributeerror-module-object-has-no-attribute-wraps/ and http://stackoverflow.com/questions/29038889/searched-everywhere-but-cant-seem-to-find-a-solution-to-attributeerror-mo they both suggest you have conflicting installs of a package somewhere. It may be worth uninstalling 2.7, deleting the directory, and then re-installing. Or you can find which package is causing the conflict. – NDevox Mar 30 '15 at 13:11

I re-installed Python 2.7.9 after uninstalling it and deleting all it's related files and it worked good again and yes there was conflictions in too many libraries. Thank you @Scironic – Mahmoud Ayman Mar 31 '15 at 11:21

No problem! Don't forget to accept the answer so people in the future will know where to look. – NDevox Mar 31 '15 at 11:22
