I wanted to install a statistics package called pmdarima. I used

pip install pmdarima

I received the error message:

ERROR: Could not install packages due to an EnvironmentError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: ‘C:\Programs\Miniconda3_x64\jup369\Lib\site-packages\numpy\conftest.py

but I saw the file conftest.py in that directory!

Does anyone know what this error means?

It looks like your path might be too long. See this link to question 54778630 for details. Try installing to a folder with a shorter path. Here is another guide that offers some more things to try.
