Setup.py script is not working, Windows 10, Python 3.7.4, Gurobi 8.1.1
AnsweredEdit: I worked around this by installing anaconda's python 3.7. Not sure why this worked, but it did!
So I've been struggling with this a few hours. I have used Gurobi on Linux/Mac before-- but I just got a desktop running Windows and was excited to break it in with some ILPs.
I installed Python 3.7.4, and then installed Gurobi 8.1.1 and activated my license key.
I primarily use the Python interface, so I went ahead and ran the setup.py install script. The output indicates that it worked.
C:\gurobi811\win64>python setup.py install

creating build\lib\gurobipy

copying python37\lib\gurobipy\gurobipy.pyd -> build\lib\gurobipy
running install_lib

However, when I run Python and attempt to import gurobipy, I get an error.

from .gurobipy import *
ImportError: DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application.
Please help. I've looked at similar issues reported. Generally, it seems like if I get this Import Error, then I didn't run the setup.py install script, but I did run the script and I'm still getting the error.
Thank you!!!

I have also tried running the setup script,
C:\gurobi811\win64\bin\pysetup
by passing in my python path, but this didn't resolve my issue either.

Hi Matt - It looks like your default Python is a 32-bit version:
C:\Users\12096\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\lib
Gurobi 8.x works only with 64-bit Python installations. Can you try using a different Python?
Thanks.
