Installing PyCrypto/Paramiko for Python3 x64 Windows
Submitted by NanoDano on Sat, 11/28/2015 - 22:32
Paramiko is a great Python library for SSH but it can be a hassle to install in Windows. In this situation, I am using Windows 10 64-bit and Python 3.4.3. Paramiko is available on Pip which helps but it is not the smoothest installation.
First, I run in to an issue with the PyCrypto dependency that it tries to install:
error: Microsoft Visual C++ 10.0 is required (Unable to find vcvarsall.bat)Read this on how to solve that problem: Fix Pip Install Unable to Find vcvarsall.bat
After getting that done and reinstalling with Pip, it appears to install properly. However, when I try to run Python and import paramiko I get an error about winrandom:
ImportError: No module named 'winrandom'To fix this, you have to go in the source code for the Crypto lib and fix an import statement. In my case, Python was installed to C:\Python34\. The full path of the file I had to change was:
C:\Python34\Lib\site-packages\Crypto\Random\OSRNG\nt.pyIn that file, change
import winrandomfrom . import winrandomNow you should be able to run python and import paramiko.
