any idea how can fixed?

thanks in advance!

fabric requires python version 2.5 or 2.6. fabric has not yet been tested on python 3.x , incompatible line of development.

it's not simple install fabric on windows, because uses specific c libs needs compiled. try next in windows:

pip install fabric # failed!

easy_install fabric # failed again!

but if don't want install visual studio or cygwin , compile c code consider way, more simple. have figured out, fabric needs next python libs installed on windows:

1. pycrypto
2. pywin32

both requires compilation or may installed pre-built binary packages (my choice!):

pycrypto: click here pywin32: click here download , install these 2 , able do:

pip install fabric # success!
