Getting “OSError: dlopen() failed to load a library: cairo / cairo-2” on Windows

问题

I'm getting OSError: dlopen() failed to load a library: cairo / cairo-2 when trying to execute Django after a new install. Using Windows.

I'm using Weasyprint, seems to be related to that one, according to the full trace:

回答1:

See http://win32builder.gnome.org/ or http://gtk-win.sourceforge.net/home/ for a list of GTK+ bundles to install. These include the required cairo/cairo-2 libs.

Extract the contents of the bin\ folder to e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\GTK2-bundle\ (any directory would do)
Add the above directory to your PATH environment variable
Restart your development environment (in my case PyCharm)

I had same problem on windows X64/Python37 but i fixed with bellow link:

follow this steps : https://weasyprint.readthedocs.io/en/stable/install.html#windows, (i installed gtk with MSYS Installer and added C:\msys64\mingw32\bin to PATH variable,after that i occurred with same error and i deleted cairocffi python library and reinstall it)
