Installing pycurl on Windows, DLL error

I installed pycurl on my Windows 7 64-bit machine with Python 2.7 from the binaries available at http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pycurl

However, I get the following error

>>> import pycurl
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified procedure could not be found.

If I run pip install pycurl, I get

Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): pycurl in c:\python27\lib\site-packages
Cleaning up...

So I believe it has installed correctly, but am I missing a DLL file?

Please advise.

Hi，I was in same situation, I got the same error "ImportError: DLL load failed:". Eventually, I solved it simply by update my python from 2.7.2 to 2.7.6 when I noticed that the intaller is built for python 2.7.6. However, my os is Windows 7 32-bit. I hope my solution can help you. Good luck.
