Install paramiko on Windows

OK. I read installing paramiko on Windows.

All mentioned methods simply do not work.

Authors have different environments with different components/libraries installed. Or may be they don't test their solutions before posting an answer :)

I removed all python versions and libs from my machine (Windows 8 x64) and tried to install python and paramiko from scratch.

Method number 1 (FAILED)

  1. Install python-2.7.3.amd64.msi
  2. Install pycrypto-2.6.win-amd64-py2.7.exe
  3. Download https://github.com/paramiko/paramiko/archive/master.zip, unpack it.
  4. Run setup.py install
  5. Go to IDLE, run import paramiko.

Result:

Traceback (most recent call last):   File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in
<module>
  import paramiko   File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\paramiko\__init__.py", line 65, in
<module>
    from transport import SecurityOptions, Transport   File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\paramiko\transport.py", line 45, in
<module>
   from paramiko.ecdsakey import ECDSAKey   File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\paramiko\ecdsakey.py", line 24, in
<module>
  from ecdsa import SigningKey, VerifyingKey, der, curves ImportError: No module named ecdsa

Method number 2 (FAILED)

  1. Install python-2.7.3.amd64.msi
  2. Install setuptools-1.4.2.win-amd64-py2.7.exe
  3. Install pip-1.4.1.win-amd64-py2.7.exe
  4. pip install paramiko
  5. Go to IDLE, run import paramiko.

Result:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module>
    import paramiko
  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\paramiko\__init__.py", line 64, in <module>

    from Crypto import Random
ImportError: No module named Crypto

For installing paramiko, Visual Basic Compiler is needed.

First download it from Microcsoft: Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7

Open the paramiko directory and run python setup.py install . And it will download dependencies from internet; especially pycrypto and installation will be successful.
