Installing python packages in JMP 19

[#1]

I was following the instructions in the online help to install python packages (pandas, numpy, ...) that I need for my scripts, but I am having trouble.

When I run 

Names Default To Here( 1 );
Python Install Packages( "pandas" );

(I needed to change to "" for it to work), I'm getting the error:

import jmputils
jmputils.jpip('install', 'pandas')
/*:
ERROR: Can not perform a '--user' install. User site-packages are disabled for this Python.

My guess is that the issue is that I would need admin rights to write to the windows folder where JMP sits, but I can't find anything in the help on how to solve this issue.

Yes, the JSL should use double quotes for the string instead of the single quotes.  Not sure how that got past our automated tests.

[#3]

Then you perhaps should change it in the online help ;) I was a bit stumped when a simple copy+paste threw errors until I changed the quotes.

Was this online support or the scripting index or both?  It is something that needs to be fixed in the documentation.  

[#5]

Only in the online support. I didn' t look in the scripting index.

You shouldn't need Admin rights.  The folder JMP tries to create is within your user roaming profile directory.  JMP itself tries write content into those folders, not just the Python site-packages directory.  If you don't have permissions, you will have more issues than just Python support.  Talk to your network admins on permissions and make sure they did not set a group policy turning off Python support.  JMP provides such a group policy setting..

Perhaps my JMP 19 is getting confused since I need to install JMP using admin rights (and a temporary admin account). Since my local user doesn't have admin rights, maybe it now thinks that the admin user is my local user?

But I'm still not sure why everything was working perfectly fine in JMP 18 with exactly the same constellation?

[#8]

Install as admin should be fine, but don't run JMP as admin especially first launch.  On launch of 19, jmp tries to build the site-packages directory if it does not already exist by unpacking the embedded site-packages.zip file to the correct location.

The final solution in the end was that somewhere in my System environment variables, the PYTHONNOUSERSITE was set to 1 (probably from an earlier python installation). Setting this to 0 fixed the issue
