Building wheel for twisted-iocpsupport (pyproject.toml) did not run successfully

Question

I am trying to install scrapy using pip but this happened. I already have a virtualenv and all.

Building wheel for twisted-iocpsupport (pyproject.toml) ... error
  error: subprocess-exited-with-error

I tried installing Twisted and twisted-iocpsupport using pip but the same problem still occurred. What should I do? I am using Python 3.11.2.

Answer 1

As I said in a comment on the related issue:

We had not done a release of this module for python 3.11 yet. I just saw this question kicked off the release process for 1.0.3, which should have wheels uploaded to PyPI within the hour, and you won't see this any more.

In the future when you see this type of error feel free to file a bug on Twisted to prompt one of the maintainers to upload wheels.
