I'm trying to do pip install --upgrade pip and keep
getting this error:

WARNING: Retrying (Retry(total=4, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None, status=None)) after connection broken by 'ProxyError('Cannot connect to proxy.', NewConnection

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pytest
ERROR: No matching distribution found for pytest

Also, I can't install any new package due to this error.
I tried to reinstall Pycharm but no luck there.
I tried some other suggested solutions online - still no luck.
I understand it has something to do with Proxy but I am not familiar with it, Anyone?

Try appending your build command with --network=host
Eg : docker build -t cointainer_name . --network=host

If you use the host network mode for a container, that container’s network stack is not isolated from the 
Docker host (the container shares the host’s networking namespace), and the container does not 
get its own IP-address allocated. 
For instance, if you run a container which binds to port 80 and you use host 
networking, the container’s application is available on port 80 on the host’s IP address.

First, reinstalling all python. Secondly, once python is installed I went to find the host file and uncomment the section of the host. Normally, the path in windows is located in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc

Uncomment this section:

localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.

127.0.0.1       localhost
::1             localhost

Hope it serves! cheers!

TL;DR for Windows, this works for me.

  1. Windows + I (to open Settings).
  2. Choose Network & Internet
  3. Choose Proxy
  4. Check Manual proxy setup to be in the Off-position

---all starts to work here already---

  1. Note: Automatically detect settings switched to On or to Off cause no influence for me (all still continue to work as it started to work after 4.).

Pre-story

I had the same error. Can't install libs by pip, by pipenv, by anaconda, by PyCharm. Then I checked Proxy setting (Windows 11 OS) and noticed I have some Manual proxy setup defined. When disable it - the problem was fixed.

The problem began very spontaneously: I did some python-work, did some installations (maybe some pithon-module with pipenv like notebook or jupyter-lab, cygwin tool etc.) and then installing/updating of the python-modules was crashed. Maybe some installations changed the proxy-parameters? I don't know.
Python re-installing didn't help.

Errors examples

For example, anaconda error while installing/updating looks like:

CondaHTTPError: HTTP 000 CONNECTION FAILED for url <https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/main/win-64/current_repodata.json>
Elapsed: -

An HTTP error occurred when trying to retrieve this URL.
HTTP errors are often intermittent, and a simple retry will get you on your way.

If your current network has https://www.anaconda.com blocked, please file
a support request with your network engineering team.

'https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/main/win-64'

Pip error while installing/updating looks like:

pip install --upgrade pip

My Env

  • python3.8
  • windows10 + WSL
  • pip 21.0.4

What's my step

  1. conda create -n py38 python=3.8
  2. pip install pandas

And then I got that error "Warning, retry ..."

How I solve the problem

Just reboot my machine.

If after install pip you have errors like this on windows with python 3.10

WARNING: Retrying (Retry(total=4, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None, status=None)) after connection broken by 'ProtocolError('Connection aborted.', PermissionError(13, 'Permission denied'))': /simple/pip/

update windows(OS) environment variables. close your windows user session and re-enter
