Issue installing boxsdk using "pip install boxsdk"

[nraizada]

Hi Team,

I am trying to install boxsdk python library on my Windows machine. But it keeps failing with the below error.

Can you please help fixing this?

Hi @nraizada,

Thanks for submitting this issue. This may be a python versioning problem. Are you using python 3.8? We currently support up to python 3.7. Can you try to install using python 3.7?

Hi Swfree,

I was having issues with 3.7 also and hence upgraded to 3.8. but result and error is same

Hi @nraizada,

Sorry to hear that the install doesn't work with either version. From your error logs, it looks like the install is getting stuck on the cached wrapt install. You could take a look at the commands in these github issues below to see if any of those commands might solve the install issue: https://github.com/GrahamDumpleton/wrapt/issues/171 https://github.com/GrahamDumpleton/wrapt/issues/156
