Setting up CPLEX with Python on Mac

I'm trying to install cplex on Python on my Mac but I'm really stuck.

The setup.py file is in the following path:

/Users/mac/Applications/IBM/ILOG/CPLEX_Studio127/cplex/python/2.7/x86-64_osx

I am using canopy for running Python.

I entered the following code in Terminal of Mac and the result was as follows:

macs-mbp:~ mac$ python setup.py install
/Users/mac/Library/Enthought/Canopy_64bit/User/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python: can't open file 'setup.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
macs-mbp:~ mac$

I then decided to use (option --home) but the result was also terrible:

macs-mbp:~ mac$ python setup.py install --home /Users/mac/Applications/IBM/ILOG/CPLEX_Studio127/cplex

/Users/mac/Library/Enthought/Canopy_64bit/User/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python: can't open file 'setup.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
macs-mbp:~ mac$

I tried using cd too but that didn't yield an improvement.

Any help would be appreciated for installing cplex on Python on Mac!

This looks like it might be similar to this SO question.

What happens if you do the following:

cd /Users/mac/Applications/IBM/ILOG/CPLEX_Studio127/cplex/python/2.7/x86-64_osx
python setup.py install

Also, you have to make sure that the "python" above points to the python you want (canopy vs the system python).
