Windows installation error: Failed building wheel for cchardet

Opened this issue · 1 comments

While trying to install oemof.tabular on Windows 10, I received the following error message:

cchardet_error_on_windows

ERROR: Could not build wheels for cchardet, which is required to install pyproject.toml based projects

The package cchardet requires Windows Build Tools C++ to build the wheel. I solved it by installing Windows Visual C++. Here you can find the fix that worked for me: twintproject/twint#1407 (comment)

@Bachibouzouk, just to let you know about a common installation problem of tabular on windows
