I've managed to make pip install robotframework, but it's not allowing me to pip install numpy (and opcua). Furthermore, if I run again pip install robot framework it tells me that:

Requirement already satisfied: robotframework in c:\msys64\mingw64\lib\python3.10\site-packages (6.0.2)

The command python --version returns 3.10.9.

Additional info: Python does not appear in the install/uninstall application list on control panel.

This is what's on the PATH variable.

Below is the exact output from the cmd:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>pip install numpy

How should I proceed?

  • Please provide the actual output of `pip install numpy` by copying it (or even taking a screenshot) and pasting it here. If the output is too big you can leave out the beginning and just provide the last several lines (the more the better) – DrEichenbach May 03 '23 at 14:10
  • What is the exact error message you get when you do `pip install numpy`? Please edit your question and provide the message as text (not a screenshot!). – Matthias May 03 '23 at 14:10
  • @DrEichenbach I did provided it. But placed it inside three `, and it was messed up. Just pasted normally as text, and it's a bit weird with lack of spaces – ATSlooking4things May 03 '23 at 14:12
  • @Matthias I just did. It's weird. If you got any idea on how to improve read-ability for you guys, just hit me up – ATSlooking4things May 03 '23 at 14:13
  • Oh, oh. mingw and numpy. You could try to install it as described at https://packages.msys2.org/package/mingw-w64-x86_64-python3-numpy. – Matthias May 03 '23 at 14:21
  • @Matthias explain me like I'm 5: why can I install robotframework with pip on cmd, and I have to install numpy with pacman on mingw terminal? Is that even installing both things on the same python? I have no idea what I'm doing with these commands and installations, but I apparently need these packages alongside python to work with robot framework – ATSlooking4things May 03 '23 at 15:58
  • @ATSlooking4things I can't answer your question, otherwise I would have. I only remember reading about problems with this constellation. – Matthias May 03 '23 at 18:22
  • @Matthias didn't meant to be rude. Was more of a self-deprecating comment, because I truly am clueless. Thanks anyways. – ATSlooking4things May 04 '23 at 07:20

python was MSYS MINGW64's python.

py was my installation of python.

To install what I wanted in the correct version, I just had to use py -m pip install instead

  • what do you mean by `py` here? – Swaminath Bera May 21 '23 at 12:04

    @SwaminathBera AFAIK it's just a normal installation of python, but that you reference through cmd by calling `py` instead of `python`. I had different versions of python installed, and each had their "reference".
