I have installed Microsoft C++ Build Tools 2022 to help me compile C files created by Cython. When I install DCNv2, it gives me this error:

error: command 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.33.31629\bin\HostX86\x64\cl.exe' failed with exit code 2

Please help as I am not well-rounded with Visual Studio and just need to get my code running.

Thanks

I had a similar problem, when doing a pip install that requires CMake, I had installed Microsoft C++ Build Tools 2022 and got the same error. The fix for this was installing the full Desktop Development with C++ workload using Visual Studio Installer, this resolved the problem of not being able to compile a simple test program.

I am seeing the same error as well, I tried to add this C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.33.31629\bin\HostX86\x64\cl.exe' in PATH to hopefully resolve the issue but it doesn't seem to work. I am not sure whether this issue coming from installing the wrong workload or not. Really hope to tap into the expert group here to resolve this.
Thank you so much.

 The C compiler
    "C:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio/2022/Community/VC/Tools/MSVC/14.34.31933/bin/Hostx64/x64/cl.exe"
  is not able to compile a simple test program.
  It fails with the following output:

 Please someone did you find a solution? 
			 
I am having the same issue :
"error: command 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.37.32822\bin\HostX86\x64\cl.exe' failed with exit code 2"
I have already reinstalled Python 3.8.10 after downloading the Desktop Development with C++. I currently have the latest Visual Studio Installer 17.7.4.
