Pillow: "pip install pillow" failing with python 3.8 and pillow 6.2.1

Created on 21 Oct 2019  ·  25Comments  ·  Source: python-pillow/Pillow

I noticed that support for 3.8 has been added to pillow 6.2.1, but when I try to pip install it, it's trying to build from source and errors because no zlib.

Am I just being too impatient and binary wheels are forthcoming?

Here's my python runtime info:

Python 3.8.0 (tags/v3.8.0:fa919fd, Oct 14 2019, 19:21:23) [MSC v.1916 32 bit (Intel)] on win32

Installation Windows

@sthasam2 downgrade your pip to 19.3 and type :

pip install Pillow==6.2.1 --no-cache-dir

it will work.

my pip was 19.3.1 and Pillow never worked in windows.

@CRCGlobal for some reason yours is still trying to pull 6.2.0. Try clearing your pip cache and see if that fixes it to pull 6.2.1

I just realized that and I retried with the no-cache-dir option and have a new error

What pip versions do you have? Does upgrading help?

hugovk picture hugovk on 21 Oct 2019

@cgohlke Any ideas? I've confirmed the Windows wheels on PyPI match those from the zip.

And it's installing cleanly on GHA for 2.7, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7 (no there 3.8 yet) with:

      ubuntu-18.04,
      ubuntu-16.04,
      macOS-10.14,
      windows-2019,
      windows-2016,

These are all for 3.8 though, as is https://github.com/python-pillow/Pillow/issues/4159.

hugovk picture hugovk on 21 Oct 2019

The latest:

pip 19.3.1 from c:python38\lib\site-packages\pip (python 3.8)

So, I'm still having issues. As a noob I wish to know how to solve this issue. Any help from the veteran python community?

sthasam2 picture sthasam2 on 4 Dec 2019

@sthasam2 Please open a new issue with details.

hugovk picture hugovk on 4 Dec 2019

@sthasam2 downgrade your pip to 19.3 and type :

pip install Pillow==6.2.1 --no-cache-dir

it will work.

my pip was 19.3.1 and Pillow never worked in windows.

kal1f picture kal1f on 10 Feb 2020

I Had Python 3.8.1 with Pip 19.0.3.
and even :

..Py3.8.1\Scripts/python.exe -m pip install Pillow --no-cache-dir

did not work for me

same Error 

The headers or library files could not be found for zlib,
    a required dependency when compiling Pillow from source.

After updating Pip to 20.0.2 It WORKED!!!

What pip versions do you have? Does upgrading help?

For pillow==5.1.0
Pip 20.2.2 and Python version 3.8 on windows, it shows the same error.

@gokulnathck you need at least Pillow 6.2.1 for Python 3.8, see https://pillow.readthedocs.io/en/stable/installation.html#notes

python -m pip install -U pip
python -m pip install -U pillow

If there's a problem with Pillow 6.2.1 or newer with Python 3.8, please open a new, detailed issue.
