Answer 1

I managed to fix this problem.

1. Install $ pip install kerberos-sspi
2. Download requests-kerberos ZIP from GitHub
3. In 'requests-kerberos/kerberos_.py', change the line import kerberos to import kerberos_sspi as kerberos
4. In 'requirements.txt', delete 'kerberos==1.1.1'
5. Run $ python setup.py install.

If you want to run test_requests_kerberos.py that is in requests-kerberos/ you need to change import kerberos with import kerberos_sspi as kerberos.

Beside that you need to change all occurrences of:

with patch.multiple('kerberos', ...)

with:

with patch.multiple('kerberos_sspi', ...)

That worked for me.

The second problem you can solve with installing Visual Studio 2012 Express and execute this command in command prompt:

> SET VS90COMNTOOLS=%VS110COMNTOOLS%

After executing this command I have a issue with your first problem. Have you solved it?
