problem installing sphinxbase on windows python3.5

nickums opened this issue 7 years ago · 12 comments

I've downloaded and unzipped but I don't know how to actually install the package.
I don't see any setup method and I'm bewildered by the info in the README.
Any help greatly appreciated !

Use 'pip install pocketsphinx-python'

Answer 2 · 2018-01-16T00:14:25.000Z

Dear Nickolay,, thanks for your swift response. I already tried that (with the latest pip), and got 'no matching distribution'. Some sites told me I needed sphinxBase first and maybe even WIG.before pocketsphinx. Nick

Some sites told me I needed sphinxBase first and maybe even WIG.before pocketsphinx.

Do not read random sites, think with your brains instead and read the package page:

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pocketsphinx

No matching distribution is probably because you are trying to install sphinxbase, pocketsphinx-python just provides python, sphinxbase is included and should not be installed separately.

Dear Nicolay, thankyou for directine me to the proper website. pip install --upgrade pocketsphinx has a problem with swig: running install running build_ext building 'sphinxbase._ad' extension swigging swig/sphinxbase/ad.i to swig/sphinxbase/ad_wrap.c swig.exe -python -modern -Ideps/sphinxbase/include -Ideps/sphinxbase/include/sphinxbase -Ideps/sphinxbase/include/win32 -Ideps/sphinxbase/swig -outdir sphinxbase -o swig/sphinxbase/ad_wrap.c swig/sphinxbase/ad.i error: command 'swig.exe' failed: No such file or directory

The file is definitely inside, you can check in explorer table view to see the file type.

sorry to be such a blithering nuisance., and appreciate your effortst o help me. OK I found cache-swg.exe in CCache, copied it into my Python path along with the unzipped swig directoryand renamed it to swig.exe. Now the install procedure hangs UP: C:\WINDOWS\system32>pip install pocketsphinx Collecting pocketsphinx Using cached pocketsphinx-0.1.3.zip Building wheels for collected packages: pocketsphinx Running setup.py bdist_wheel for pocketsphinx ... - The pprocess continues to burn afew %cpu but no further output. The complications of installing packages in the rather hostile windows environment are quite beyond my limited expertise. Nick

The pprocess continues to burn afew %cpu but no further output.

It compiles, you just have to wait a bit

Answer 10 · 2018-01-29T14:43:46.000Z

Thanks for your supportive comment. After a couple of hours I found the window:
[swig.exe application error unable to start correctly 0xc0000142]

This was the swig.exe I previously dug out of swigwin 3.0.12 cccache. as noted 12 days ago.

Answer 11 · 2018-01-29T15:34:49.000Z

Try this swig.exe, it is extracted from swigwin zip. Try to turn off antivirus, most likely it deletes this file as suspicious.

Answer 12 · 2018-01-30T15:20:23.000Z

That was incredibly helpful! To my astonishment pocketsphinx installed correctly in a few seconds!
Thanks a million. Now I must fix PyAudio [No module named '_portaudio'] which I think is also needed.
So we can close this issue. All your support very much appreciated.
