Is there any way to install Setuptools for Python 2.6 in Windows without having an exe installer?

There isn't one built at the moment, and the maintainer of Setuptools has stated that it will probably be a while before he'll get to it.

Python 2.6 free download - Python, Python, MDAC 2.6 Service Pack 2, and many more programs.

Does anyone know of a way to install it anyway?

First Option - Online Installation (i.e. remaining connected to the Internet during the entire installation process):

1. Download setuptools-0.6c9.tar.gz
2. Use 7-zip to extract it to a folder(directory) outside your Windows Python installation folder
3. Go the folder (refer step 2) and run ez_setup.py from the corresponding dos (command) prompt
4. Ensure that your PATH includes the appropriate C:Python2XScripts directory

Second Option:

1. Download setuptools-0.6c9.tar.gz
2. Download setuptools-0.6c9-py2.6.egg to a folder(directory) outside your Windows Python installation folder
3. Use 7-zip to extract ez_setup.py in the same folder as setuptools-0.6c9-py2.6.egg
4. Go to the corresponding dos prompt and run python ez_setup.py setuptools-0.6c9-py2.6.egg from the command prompt
5. Ensure that your PATH includes the appropriate C:Python2XScripts directory

Third Option (assuming that you have Visual Studio 2005 or MinGW on your machine)

Zombie panic source download. GamemodesZombie Panic! Source hosts a variety of game modes for excellent replayability.

1. Download setuptools-0.6c9.tar.gz
2. Use 7-zip to extract it to a folder(directory) outside your Windows Python installation folder
3. Go the folder (refer step 2) and run python setup.py install from the corresponding dos (command) prompt

Please provide feedback.

You could download and run http://peak.telecommunity.com/dist/ez_setup.py. This will download and install setuptools.

[update]

This script no longer works - the version of setuptools the it downloads is not at the URI specified in ez_setup.py -navigate to http://pypi.python.org/packages/2.7/s/setuptools/ for the latest version - the script also does some md5 checking, I haven't looked into it any further.

The Nov. 21 answer didn't work for me. I got it working on my 64 bit Vista machine by following the Method 1 instructions, except for Step 3 I typed:

setup.py install

So, in summary, I did: https://quiznin.netlify.app/bookworm-adventures-volume-2-download.html.

1. Download setuptools-0.6c9.tar.gz
2. Use 7-zip to extract it to a folder (directory) outside your Windows Python installation folder
3. At a DOS (command) prompt, cd to your the newly created setuptools-0.6c9 folder and type 'setup.py install' (without the quotes).
4. Ensure that your PATH includes the appropriate C:Python2XScripts directory

I'm able to find the EXE doing google,

you can simply download it from following URL, and double click and install..

I got it working quickly by downloading the source and then running (from the extracted directory):

That builds distsetuptools-0.6c9.win32.exe, which is exactly the installer you're looking for.

Island tribe 5 free online. Just installed setuptools as follows:

1. Downloaded http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/s/setuptools/setuptools-0.6c9.tar.gz#md5=3864c01d9c719c8924c455714492295e , and extracted to a folder outside of my Python installation.
2. command prompt, then cd into that folder.
3. enter python setup.py install

That will install from the source into your python's site-packages folder and any other steps needed. This was on Windows XP SP2.

The 'first option' (4 steps: download, extract, run, verify PATH) didn't work on my Windows Server 2008 x64 machine with Python 2.6 32 bit installed, nor did it work on my Vista x64 machine with Python 2.6 32 bit installed.

The 'second option (5 steps: download, extract, extract, run, verify PATH) worked on both Windows Server 2008 x64 and on Windows Vista x64.

Thanks a bunch for providing the instructions!

OP option 1 did not work for me. Hp printer drivers mac download.

However doing setup.py install as mentioned by NathanD did do the trick.

Maybe that should become option 1?

The easiest setuptools installation option is to use the pre-packaged Windows Installer.

for 32-bit Python on Windows, the official setuptools page has been updated and has windows installers for Python 2.6 and 2.7:

That’s the period of both functions, 360 degrees. Graphing sine cosine tangent comparison. (It’s no coincidence, by the way, that 360 degrees is also once around the unit circle.)The unit circle tells you thatIf you start with these five points, you can sketch one cycle. First, note that the sine and cosine graphs are the same shape — cosine is the same as sine, just slid 90 degrees to the left. Also, notice that their simple wave shape goes as high as 1 and as low as –1, and goes on forever to the left and right, repeating every 360 degrees. The cycle then repeats to the left and right.

for 64-bit Python on Windows, setuptools Windows installers are available here:

My advice is to wait until Python 2.6.2 to use Python 2.6 on Windows. There are still some bugs that make it less than ideal (this one is particularly nasty). Personally, I wasn't able to get setuptools working totally well on Vista x64 even after installing from source. Under Python 2.5.4, I haven't had any problems though.

Second option worked for me.

Two notes:

a. After installing, when you using easy_install in vista, do so as administrator. (Right click on your command line shortcut and click 'run as administrator'). I had trouble trying to run easy_install without doing that.

b. He means use ez_setup from setuptools-0.6c9.tar.gz

Python has everything on board to do this.

from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools#installing-and-using-setuptools I got the URL to the ez_setup.py: https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/raw/bootstrap/ez_setup.py

Windows Install Pip Python 2.7

instead downloading it and fiddling with the file we can do this from the console:

ActivePython already includes setuptools (Distribute actually), along with pip and virtualenv.
