New submission from Lokesh Chandak <lokeshchand...@gmail.com>:
I encountered this issue when using pip. Whenever I try to install a package, it shows a Fatal error, saying that the module encodings was not found, followed by a reboot. The blue screen shows this message: KMode exception not handled. What failed: dipsp.sys. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling python 3.7.3. I have also tried moving back to Python 3.5, because I am certain that this issue didn't exist when I was using that. However I encountered the same issues again. I can otherwise use the interpreter, and run all my code just fine. Previously installed modules like pandas and numpy also work like usual. The only difficulty I encountered is when attempting to install new packages using pip. After looking around, I found something about setting PYTHONPATH and PYTHONHOME environment variables, but it didn't work either. I tried installing python in different locations, but that didn't help either. I am now stuck because I can't install any modules, (and I lost previously installed modules during clean reinstall). How do I solve this? And while a solution is found, is there a way to install modules without pip? ---------- components: Installation, Windows messages: 346322 nosy: Lokesh Chandak, paul.moore, steve.dower, tim.golden, zach.ware priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: FatalError: initfsencoding python couldn't find codec Module not found: Encodings type: crash versions: Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37378> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
