I am trying to use Pulp to setup my LP model and solve it using CPLEX solver. I have CPLEX installed with license on my laptop but getting the below error :

PulpSolverError: PuLP: cannot execute cplex.exe

  • You may want to consider using [docplex](https://developer.ibm.com/docloud/documentation/optimization-modeling/modeling-for-python/) (a modeling language) or the [CPLEX Python API](https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSSA5P_12.8.0/ilog.odms.cplex.help/refpythoncplex/html/cplex-module.html) instead as they are supported by IBM. – rkersh Jul 11 '18 at 14:50

Make sure that cplex.exe is in your PATH (see Adding directory to PATH Environment Variable in Windows).

Alternately, you can set the path argument to the location of cplex.exe in the CPLEX_CMD constructor (see the source code).
