Tried installing python-ldap, but failed

  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
  ERROR: Failed building wheel for python-ldap

ERROR: Could not build wheels for python-ldap, which is required to install pyproject. toml-based projects

Tried using few of the .whl files from https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#_python-ldap, but failed

PS C:\Users\rathod\source\repos\00 Dell-Gitlab staging\replication_status> pip install .\python_ldap-3.4.0-cp311-cp311-win32.whl
ERROR: python_ldap-3.4.0-cp311-cp311-win32.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.

Has anyone faced same challenge, and if there is any way to install this old module on windows system?

  • Please provide enough code so others can better understand or reproduce the problem. Commented Jun 15, 2022 at 13:05
  • For my own projects that need to run on Windows, I use the pure-Python ldap3 module instead – its API is not my favorite but easier to install on Win. (Actually ended up making an abstraction layer over 'ldap3' and 'ldap'.) Commented Jun 16, 2022 at 5:41
  • Thank you @user1686. I am planning to upgrade the code to use ldap3 Commented Jun 17, 2022 at 6:21
