Python Installation Compilation Errors

I'm hoping someone can help me since I've been stuck on this for a while, and I'm not very familiar with compiling packages. Trying to install the following package: https://github.com/jhkorhonen/MOODS/wiki/Installation

Running Python 3.5 (Anaconda), Windows 10 64bit, Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 Community Edition. Here is what I did so far.

Then another error:

However, yet another error:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Shared\14.0\VC\bin\cl.exe /c /nologo /Ox /W3 /GL /DNDEBUG /MD -Icore/ -IC:\Users\Wolf\Anaconda3\include -IC:\Users\Wolf\Anaconda3\include "-IC:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Include\10.0.14393.0\ucrt" /EHsc /Tpcore/tools_wrap.cxx /Fobuild\temp.win-amd64-3.5\Release\core/tools_wrap.obj -march=native -O3 -fPIC --std=c++11 cl : Command line warning D9002 : ignoring unknown option '-march=native' cl : Command line warning D9002 : ignoring unknown option '-O3' cl : Command line warning D9002 : ignoring unknown option '-fPIC' cl : Command line warning D9002 : ignoring unknown option '--std=c++11' tools_wrap.cxx C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Include\10.0.14393.0\ucrt\corecrt.h(10): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'vcruntime.h': No such file or directory error: command 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\Shared\\14.0\\VC\\bin\\cl.exe' failed with exit status 2

I'm not sure how to solve this. It seems like adding things to PATH isn't helping a whole lot. Maybe it has to do with the introduction of Universal CRT? Should I just uninstall Visual Studio 2017 and use an older version?

you can also download and install window 10 sdk independently,

using this link, hope it solves the issue.

2nd try to use the the visual studio command propmpt e.g Vs2017 x64 Native Tools command prompt and then try the compilation process.

I had very similiar issue running Python 3.5 (Anaconda), Windows 10 64bit, Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 Professional Edition.

Did you try to enable a 64-Bit Visual C++ Toolset on the Command Line? To do this, run vcvars64.bat on your command line first. In my case the localization is:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Professional\VC\Auxiliary\Build

This was sufficient for me and solved my problem.

In addition, I see some users have to install "Windows Universal CRT SDK" (I have it already). Check if you also have it:

  1. Run Visual Studio Installer.
  2. Select Modify button.
  3. Go to "Individual Components" tab.
  4. Scroll down to "Compilers, build tools and runtimes".
  5. Tick "Windows Universal CRT SDK".
  6. Install.

PS: for convenience I recommend using powershell. A script for setting vcvars64.bat example from here:

pushd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Professional\VC\Auxiliary\Build\"
cmd /c "vcvars64.bat&set" |
foreach {
  if ($_ -match "=") {
    $v = $_.split("="); set-item -force -path "ENV:\$($v[0])"  -value "$($v[1])"
  }
}
popd
Write-Host "`nVisual Studio 2017 Command Prompt variables set." -ForegroundColor Yellow
