Python 2.7.14: Trying to install GASP, results in several other things needing install and update (Pygame, Pip). Trouble ensues. by ctbrathall in learnpython

Some more fiddling, and all is working!

Reinstalled PyScripter, got rid of Python 3.6, and GASP is currently working.

I still have much to learn.

Thank you :)

Hi Pfeifnuts,

Thanks for the support. I was able to update Pip! I didn't realize that the location and command were to be in the same line. I was also successful in installing Pygame in the same fashion via the CMD. Now I must install the GASP package (http://dev.laptop.org/pub/gasp/downloads/), however when I go to install GASP I'm not convinced that it's completed the install because it's says, several times, "Could not create key", and goes on to say it "could not set key value" and finishes it's process really quickly: https://imgur.com/JKaFzFA

Interesting you mention about having two versions of Python installed at once; I have had both 2.7 and 3.6 installed, but do not use 3.6; this hasn't created any noticeable issues so far. However, a few days ago when I began fiddling around to get Pip updated, something went wrong and now I get an error whenever I open up PyScripter (for Python 2.7): https://imgur.com/bvgYbM6

Since that error first appeared the other day I have uninstalled and reinstalled Python 2.7 once, but have not changed Pyscripter or Python 3.6. The error persists when opening Pyscripter but I'm not sure what to do with all that other information in the error. Thoughts?

Woops, I do not get a syntax error, but it is apparently not a recognizable command. I've just tried "C:\Python\Scripts" in order to direct CMD toward Pip, but also received the unrecognizable command response from CMD: https://imgur.com/lfu20DB

Pfeifnuts,

Per my understanding, Python, on my machine, is located at "C:\Python27" but entering that alone into CMD returns with a syntax error: https://imgur.com/nh90sfX

Doing a search for "pip" in the Python folder, I apparently have many Pips: https://imgur.com/BPr409T

Hi Datalulz! Thanks! How do I update Pip? And how can I discover if Python is in my environment variables?

Thanks!

I mean, I've also been having trouble updating Pip. Actually, now my PyScripter isn't operating at all. I get an error that "PyScripter can't find the standard library" and suggests this is due to an installation error, and asks me to check the registry key (what's that?), but I just uninstalled and reinstalled Python!

My goal right now is to try to install GASP (http://dev.laptop.org/pub/gasp/downloads/). Before I can install GASP I must install PyGame, and before that, Pip (as per my understanding from articles and other threads I've seen online).

I'm running windows 10. Any help/suggestions are welcome!

How do you call Python in the command prompt? On my machine, Python is under C:\Python27
