I have tried multiple times, but never have been able to install scipy via easy_install on cygwin. I am using python 2.6.5 and Windows 7. After installing numpy successfully, I try to install scipy via the following command:
easy_install -U scipy
and see the following errors:
bnrm2,resid,info = zstoptest2(r,b,bnrm2,tol,info) Wrote C/API module "_iterative" to file "build/src.cygwin-1.7.9-i686-2.6/build/src.cygwin-1.7.9-i686-2.6/scipy/sparse/linalg/isolve/iterative _iterativemodule.c" 1 [main] python 6160 C:\cygwin\bin\python.exe: *** fatal error - unable to remap \\?\C:\cygwin\lib\python2.6\lib-dynload\time.dll to same addre s as parent: 0x320000 != 0x3F0000 Stack trace: Frame Function Args 00286AF8 6102796B (00286AF8, 00000000, 00000000, 00000000) 00286DE8 6102796B (6117EC60, 00008000, 00000000, 61180977) 00287E18 61004F1B (611A7FAC, 61243884, 00320000, 003F0000) End of stack trace 2 [main] python 2232 fork: child 6160 - died waiting for dll loading, errno 11 error: Setup script exited with error: Resource temporarily unavailabl No clue what is going on, and was not able to install this on my last PC either. Has anyone successfully installed this module using cygwin? Do i have to build from source? If so, that seems like a HUGE pain in the ass.
Thanks
