错误：cl.exe失败，退出状态为2

Question

When I use pip to install lxml, I found I din't have VC, I googled a lot, but though I install Visual C++ Compiler Package for python2.7, it didn't work.

Here are the key points:

1. Visual C++ Compiler Package for python2.7 installed, and reset computer
2. MinGW put into the PATH

The following is the error

C:\Users\deacyn\Desktop>pip install lxml

Answer 1

Did you check this: Could not find function xmlCheckVersion in library libxml2. Is libxml2 installed?

The problem is caused by the versions.The Python version is 2.7 and the lxml is 3.6 which I originally downloaded.When I download lxml 2.2.8.exe ,I was pleasantly surprised to find that the problem was solved.
