I am trying to install scipy package for python 2.7 in windows, The process i followed is as follows:

  1. downloaded a whl file scipy-0.17.1-cp27-cp27m-win32.whl from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#scipy

  2. tried to install by pip install scipy-0.17.1-cp27-cp27m-win32.whl

    error : Requirement 'scipy-0.15.1-cp27-none-win32.whl' looks like a filename but the file does not exist scipy-0.15.1-cp27-none-win32.whl is not a supported wheelon this platform.

  3. then tried to install by pip install file_location\scipy-0.17.1-cp27-cp27m-win32.whl.

    error displayed :scipy-0.15.1-cp27-none-win32.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.

    Also i have already upgraded my pip command. Can anyone suggest me out some valid solutions?

  • You have a typo in step 2. Can you show cut-and-paste the exact command you use and the error you get back? Are you sure that's the correct platform? – Lex Scarisbrick Jul 19 '16 at 13:45
  • Hey, i have made changes in the command in step 2. I am trying to install it in windows platform using the mentioned commands. Why would this create a platform conflict? – Wilvasini Jul 20 '16 at 05:10
  • you need file along with path . but you did it. what about python bit? 32 or 64? not about OS asking about your python .. – Mohideen bin Mohammed Jul 20 '16 at 05:11

I Think the issue in Python interpreter variant 32 or 64.. if your python is 32-bit then use scipy-0.17.1-cp27-cp27m-win32.whl otherwise if your python is 64Bit then try scipy-0.17.1-cp27-cp27m-win_amd64.whl

  • hey yes as you said i checked for the python bit which is 64 and downloaded a different file accordingly from https://pypi.anaconda.org/carlkl/simple/scipy/ i.e scipy-0.15.1-cp27-none-win_amd64.whl and used the command : pip install file_location\scipy-0.15.1-cp27-none-win_amd64.whl it worked thank you so much. – Wilvasini Jul 20 '16 at 09:34
