Setting up Sentry Server on Windows 10 Pro

Hi,
I am trying to set sentry server on window 10 pro, and i am getting these errors

1,
Command “python setup.py egg_info” failed with error code 1 in C:\Users\ssntp\AppData\Local\Temp\pip-build-fxwmexxk\libsourcemap
2.
No working compiler found, or bogus compiler options
passed to the compiler from Python’s distutils module.

Since server is python, we should be able to run in the windows.

Please help

As mentioned on GitHub and on our docs explicitly, we do not support Windows and there are many compatibility issues that we don’t attempt to resolve. It’s unfortunately a lot more complex than simply being python to also be Windows compatible.

I take it that windows support is a no go?
The only option to run it on premises is to use the docker image?

You can try running Sentry in WSL1 or WSL2 but I’d strongly recommend against it. We are not planning on having native Windows support that said we don’t even explicitly support Linux. Our focus is on running via Docker and Docker Compose which also run on Windows pretty well, especially when combined with WSL.
