I am using the command line to try to install pip. I am using the command line to install the file. I am using the command "python C:\Users\Lucas\Desktop\get-pip.py install" in the C:\Python27 directory. Below is the error message i receive in the error log:

Do not pass any parameters:

python get-pip.py

or

/path/to/version/python get-pip.py

The install command is unnecassary, as others pointed on, switch to get-pip.py directory and run command python get-pip.py would be enough.

The error indicates that the pip tries to install something with the install command and it does not find the requirement of package name to be installed. This install or upgrade you can do once pip gets installed.

The command python \path\to\getpip\get-pip.py will take care of installing pip with python. Once this step is completed you could try install or upgrade command like pip install <pkgname>
