I'm trying to install Tweepy using pip, but I keep getting this as the response: enter image description here

I've seen similar problems and people always suggest adding C:\Python34\Scripts to your PATH. Here is what happens when I try and do that: enter image description here

Then when I do echo %PATH% it doesn't show the path that I added. Using pip still does not work.

How do I make it to where I am able to use pip? I looked through multiple other questions that were VERY similar to mine, but none of the solutions worked.

Thanks for the help in advance!

  • looks like youre using windows so ensure that you've [installed `pip`](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4750806/how-do-i-install-pip-on-windows) – R Nar Jun 08 '16 at 18:57
  • Is C:\Python34 actually your Python directory? Depending on what version how you installed and how, it might be something else. – nephtes Jun 08 '16 at 18:57
  • Yes, my directory is C:\Python34. I double checked just in case. – MoreFoam Jun 08 '16 at 19:04
  • I think that "WARNING" is probably the main issue here. How long is the PATH variable exactly? If it is in fact longer than 1024 characters, you'll want to check http://superuser.com/questions/387619/overcoming-the-1024-character-limit-with-setx – nephtes Jun 08 '16 at 19:08

I would recommend using this guide for adding a new folder to your system path, normally works for me. It goes through a GUI instead of adding through the command line.

A second solution is that you can just cd into the directory that contains pip and use it from there each time, but thats only if nothing else works.

It seems like you are using windows so you need to download the get-pip.py and run like this.

Path_to_your_Python.exe\python.exe Path_to_get-pip.py\get-pip.py tweepy

Here is the link for download get-pip.py
