I'm trying to install gevent-websocket for Python (http://www.gelens.org/code/gevent-websocket/), but when I run easy_install gevent-websocket I get "command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1".

The following is the full output from the terminal.

I also get the same error when trying pip install, so I'm a bit clueless about what to do next. The output says "gevent-websocket 0.3.4 is already the active version in easy-install.pth" and I'm not sure what this means, but I do know that if I try to import gevent or geventwebsocket, it says the module doesn't exist.

gevent/libevent.h:9: fatal error: event.h: No such file or directory

Install the libevent development package for your distro.

Under Ubuntu, it's libevent-dev.

If you are on Ubuntu type the following:

Step - 1 Go to this website page and look for gevent.whl file according to your python version and download it.

Step - 2 In command prompt, Change directory to downloaded gevent.whl file,and copy under format.. C:\Users\ACER\Download>pip install .\gevent.whl

Step - 3 In python shell, Try it out like "import gevent".. I think it will work! Be successful...
