Openpyxl missing 'jdcal'

Question

I tried to install the openpyxl module, but during the installation it showed some errors with JDcall. When I then try to import it, I get this error:

 Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Andrzej\workspace\sandbox\sandbox.py", line 7, in <module>

ImportError: No module named 'jdcal'

I get this same problem for Python 3.4 and 3.3, how can I solve it?

Answer 1

You should install jdcal separately. After this, install Openpyxl. I faced the same issue - after doing this, it got resolved

Answer 2

After I downloaded the jdcal-x.x.x.tar.gz from https://pypi.org/project/jdcal/#files and extracted it in \path\to\pythonxx\Lib\site-packages\ I had to copy the jdcal.py file from \path\to\pythonxx\Lib\site-packages\jdcal-1.4.1\ to \path\to\pythonxx\Lib\site-packages\ in order to work.
