Reported by phaugs...@gmail.com, Apr 16, 2013
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download the pyodbc-3.0.6.win32-py2.7.exe file from the website
2. Run the installer
3. Check the Python 2.7 Lib\site-packages\pyodbc-3.0.6-py2.7.egg-info directory
4. Only four text files are found
  a.  dependency_links.txt
  b.  PKG-INFO
  c.  SOURCES.txt
  d.  top_level.txt


What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I would expect the modules to be available in the ..\\site-packages\pyodbc-3.0.6-py2.7.egg-info directory.  Instead, only four text files exist.  I then receive import errors in the IDE.


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
3.0.6 for Python 2.7; Windows 7, but also occurs on Windows XP


Please provide any additional information below.
Be happy to help troubleshoot.  Have been unsuccessful using pip and easy_install.  This does appear to have been issue with prior versions of the installer.  If I overlooked something in error please let me know, but in various web postings, I only came across a user whom resolved the issue by rebuilding from source with a different version of VB .NET (Issue 234).

The installer installs the pyodbc modules in .pyd form (windows dll directly importable by python) into C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\pyodbc.pyd

Does that file not exist on your system? What does C:\Python27\pyodbc-wininst.log have in it?

See http://docs.python.org/2/faq/windows.html#is-a-pyd-file-the-same-as-a-dll for more information

I had the opportunity to try the install again.  This is my error, or an issue with my home laptop.  I was able to successfully install pyodbc on my work laptop.  My apologies.  

Respectfully,
Peter
