I am firing following command and it's showing the same for psycopg2-binary

(demo) C:\Users\Lenovo\Desktop\Django>pip install psycopg2
Collecting psycopg2

    Error: pg_config executable not found.

    pg_config is required to build psycopg2 from source.  Please add the directory
    containing pg_config to the $PATH or specify the full executable path with the
    option:

        python setup.py build_ext --pg-config /path/to/pg_config build ...

    or with the pg_config option in 'setup.cfg'.

    If you prefer to avoid building psycopg2 from source, please install the PyPI
    'psycopg2-binary' package instead.

    For further information please check the 'doc/src/install.rst' file (also at
    <https://www.psycopg.org/docs/install.html>).

  • I am also facing the same issue.What is your python version? You can try installing the "tar.gz" file from https://pypi.org/project/psycopg2. – nikita mane Oct 30 '20 at 18:45
  • `pg_config` is an executable that comes with PostgreSQL. Make sure you have PostgreSQL installed and that the `pg_config` location is included in your PATH. https://stackoverflow.com/a/58440598/1977847 – Håken Lid Oct 30 '20 at 18:59

Maybe this will help(pip install psycopg2). As I understand, there is kind of answer (pg_config executable not found).Maybe I'm wrong (99% guarantee, that I'm wrong, just because I'm new one in programming).
