Running PyHKAL on Windows requires a few steps that might not be obvious at first:

1. Install Mingw32.

2. Add <Mingw32 install path>\bin to your PATH environment variable (%PATH%).

3. Install OpenSSL for Win32.

   At the time of writing, 1.0 is the latest version. Check the OpenSSL Win32 Downloads for all available versions. You will need the package recommended for developers, ie. no Light package.

4. Add <OpenSSL install path>\bin to your PATH environment variable.

5. Install CouchDB.

6. Your system is all set. Now use install.bat to compile PyHKAL into a virtual environment and install.bat run to run the service.

   Note

   You still need to configure your installation.

Hint

install.bat clean removes the virtual environment.
