I have been trying to install the thrift_sasl package through pip in Windows 10 x64.

The thrift_sasl depends on the sasl package, but on running pip install thrift_sasl or pip install sasl, I run into the same error.

creating build\temp.win-amd64-2.7\Release\sasl
C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Programs\Common\Microsoft\Visual C++ for Python\9.0\VC\Bin\amd64\cl.exe /c /nologo /Ox /MD /W3 /GS- /DNDEBUG -Isasl -Ic:\python27\include -Ic:\python27\PC /Tpsasl/saslwrapper.cpp /Fobuild\temp.win-amd64-2.7\Release\sasl/saslwrapper.obj
saslwrapper.cpp
sasl/saslwrapper.cpp(247) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'stdint.h': No such file or directory
error: command 'C:\\Users\\user\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Common\\Microsoft\\Visual C++ for Python\\9.0\\VC\\Bin\\amd64\\cl.exe' failed with exit status 2

The problem is probably because Visual C++ for Python does not support older c header files. Can anyone help me with the installation?

Edit: I installed mingw, and tried to install using the --compiler=mingw32 option of pip. Now it gives me the following error:

C:\MinGW\bin\gcc.exe -mdll -O -Wall -Isasl -Ic:\python27\include -Ic:\python27\PC -c sasl/saslwrapper.cpp -o build\temp.win-amd64-2.7\Release\sasl\saslwrapper.o

                       ^
compilation terminated.

Edit 2: I downloaded the Cyrus sasl C library and copied the header files to the folder from where mingw looks for header files(i.e. C:\MinGW\lib\gcc\mingw32\4.9.3\include\sasl). Now, I get this error:

It seems that the sasl library I downloaded does not have any function getpass. I looked around and found that the getpass function works only on linux and changes the terminal state as shown on the linux man page. I downloaded the library from here. Any ideas for any workaround?

I had the same problem trying to install version 0.2.1, but then I tried the latest version (0.4.3), and it installed with no problem.

if you dont have chocolatey installed, install it using these directionschocolatey install

then try 

choco install msinttypes

from command prompt.

then try installing thrift_sasl again

  • Not able to install `msinttypes` as I don't have admin privileges. Or specifically `Requested registry access is not allowed.` – Rahul May 26 '16 at 09:08

I had the same trouble with you when I tried to install sasl. Here's my solution:

  1. yum search sasl
  2. sudo yum install cyrus-sasl-devel saslwrapper
  3. sudo pip install sasl

Bingo! Hope I can help you with it.

After running the following command, "pip install sasl" and "pip install thrift_sasl" successfully installed.

$ sudo yum install gcc-c++ python-devel.x86_64 cyrus-sasl-devel.x86_64
