GDAL安装->导入错误：DLL加载失败：找不到指定的程序

Question

I am trying to install 'GDAL' python package in conda. Following are the various steps I followed for the installation.

1. Create a new environment

conda create -n gdal_py37 python=3.7

2. Activating the new environment

conda activate gdal_py37

3. Executing requirements file shown here .

pip install -r requirements.txt

4. From Anaconda Navigator-> environments-> 'gdal_py37' -> select gdal package from uninstalled packages -> Apply

5. Implemented below line of code in python

import gdal

6. Following is the error occurring

Output exceeds the size limit. Open the full output data in a text editor

How can I resolve this error?

Answer 1

There is probably a compatibility issue with another package. This can easily happen when you are using conda with pip . Here are two things you should consider:

1. When using conda you don't want to use pip because it often leads to package incompabilities as pointed out above. Use the conda package manager together with environment.yml files ( conda docs | managing environments )
2. When working with geodata, datascience, etc. in conda, you really should use the conda-forge channel .

---

Add the conda-forge channel by running

conda config --add channels conda-forge
conda config --set channel_priority strict

If you did not remove your non-functioning environment yet, do it with conda env remove -n gdal_py37 .

Create a file environment.yml which replaces your requirements.txt and should look like this:

name: gdal_py37
channels:
  - conda-forge
dependencies:
  - gdal=3.5.2
  - python=3.7

Create your environment with its dependencies by running:

conda env create -f environment.yml

Activate your environment with conda activate gdal_py37 .

Now start python and run the following:

from osgeo import gdal
