I'm running pip install numpy
on windows7 64bit
and i'm getting error: Unable to find vcvarsall.bat
I've already installed some packages with pip, e.g. pyzmq
,pysolr
,enum
,etc., so I really don't know what went wrong.
The only thing that might be different is that I've install .NET framework version 4.5
-> I suspect that could be the reason because in some posts I saw it might have to do with Visual Studio
(That I didn't install)

Had the same problem on my 64-Bit Windows. The issue was resolved by installing the Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7, which is described by Microsoft as:
Works like a charm.
You need to download and install vcsetup.exe(Visual C++ 2008 express edition) file
And then add newly created vcvarsall.bat file path to "PATH" environment variable.
Make sure there are no special symbols in your PATH environment variable after adding
Try to run below commands. I faced similar issue, but for some other module. It got resolved after running below commands.
python -m pip install -U pip
pip install -U setuptools
pip install -U virtualenv
Maybe you want to use the prebuilt binaries here: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#numpy? Using pip likely wont yield any good results. The reason is that numpy doesn't compile with Visual Studio at all and needs to be built with gcc.
If you still really want to compile numpy, you need to setup a Linux machine with Vagrant and follow the official build instructions here: https://github.com/juliantaylor/numpy-vendor
For 64-bit systems, this problem can be resolved by the following 5 steps. (taken from http://springflex.blogspot.in/2014/02/how-to-fix-valueerror-when-trying-to.html)
Install the Microsoft Windows SDK from: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=24826
select web setup link under installation instructions to get an installer.
Run the installer file unselect samples and documentation if they are not required
Create a copy of the batch file "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\bin\vcvars64.bat" and rename it to "vcvarsamd64.bat" in the same folder.
Copy the file "vcvarsamd64.bat" and paste it in the folder "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0/VC/bin/amd64"
A procedure which works on my Windows 7, 64 bit, and Python 2.7 is to download the binaries of numpy directly from Sourceforge. E.g. numpy-1.9.2-win32-superpack-python2.7.exe.
Then extract the EXE files for example with 7z. There will be three EXE files, e.g. numpy-1.9.2-nosse.exe, numpy-1.9.2-sse2.exe, numpy-1.9.2-sse3.exe.
Choose the appropriate now. On more or less modern processors SSE3 will be fine.
SciPy works with the same procedure: SF-link
If binaries are OK for you, the only disadvantage is that you cannot update the packages via pip.
