Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 is required (Unable to find vcvarsall.bat)

Question

I\'ve installed Python 3.5 and while running

pip install mysql-python

it gives me the following error

error: Microsoft Vi         


        

Answer 1

I had exactly the same issue and solved it by installing mysql-connector-python with:

pip install mysql-connector-python

I am on python3.7 & windows 10 and installing Microsoft Build Tools for Visual Studio 2017 (as described here) did not solve my problem that was identical to yours.
