Unable to install pymssql

I was trying to install pymssql .For this I use pip and installed it using a virtual environment according to instructions mentioned here But when I say

(my_new_env)tmp> pip install pymssql

I see the following errors :

Downloading pymssql-2.0.0b1-dev-20111019.tar.gz (5.0Mb): 5.0Mb downloaded Running setup.py egg_info for package pymssql
Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 14, in File "/private/tmp/my_new_env/build/pymssql/setup.py", line 41, in from Cython.Distutils import build_ext as _build_ext ImportError: No module named Cython.Distutils Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info: Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/private/tmp/my_new_env/build/pymssql/setup.py", line 41, in

from Cython.Distutils import build_ext as _build_ext

ImportError: No module named Cython.Distutils

I googled a bit for this issue.Do I have to install Cython or something? If so some instructions in this direction would be helpful. Thanks!

You need to install Cython. It is available on PyPi so you may be able to do:

pip install cython

That may not work on windows (I really don't know), but if it doesn't check out this page: http://cython.org/#download

On that page you will see a link to windows installers. Pick the right one and you should be good to go.
