OpenSSL issue when installing scrapy on Python on windows

Question

I've an [y] array of ~10k elements generating a square wave plot. I'd like to extract the x value around y=0. Do you know how to do that?

data = np.array(value,dtype=float)  
length= len(data)
newarr = np.array_split(data, 20)
y = newarr
x=len(y)

Solution

I have exactly the same issue but on Windows XP.

To solve the openssl/asn1.h no such file issue check your LIB and INCLUDE system variables.

In Windows XP you can do this from the CMD prompt window with the following commands:

SET LIB

SET INCLUDE

They should include the lib and include folders of the OpenSSL directory. On my machine:

SET LIB C:\OpenSSL-win32\lib;etc;etc;etc

SET INCLUDE C:\OpenSSL-win32\include;etc;etc

You can add to the system variables like this:

SET LIB=C:\OPenSSL-win32\lib;%LIB%

This won't cure the access is denied issue I'm afraid.

I guess its too late for this.. This is what I tried: Switch to Ubuntu->Setup scrapy->save your time
