I am using Python 3.6. When I try to install "modules" using pip3, I face this issue:

pip is configured with locations that require TLS/SSL, however the ssl module in Python is not available

Do you installed pip from package manager? If you installed compiling, first install libssl-dev or install ssl from pip pip install ssl #41098752 – Radarman 30/8, 2017 at 11:41

@Radarman pip doesn't work becuse of ssl and you ask to install ssl, with pip :) – Purcell 27/10, 2018 at 22:13

For Windows 10 if you want use pip in normal cmd, not only in Anaconda prompt. you need add 3 environment paths. like the followings:

D:\Anaconda3 
D:\Anaconda3\Scripts
D:\Anaconda3\Library\bin

most people only add D:\Anaconda3\Scripts

Microelement answered 27/2, 2019 at 3:4 Comment(14)

Thanks, I've added D:\Anaconda3\Library\bin and it works, by the way the libssl-1_1-x64.dll is in that folder. (win10x64, python 3.7) – Chichihaerh 7/10, 2019 at 8:4

when you add those three in your path close the cmd go back to it and try again it should work. – Debauched 2/11, 2019 at 0:51

What do yo u mean by environment paths? do you mean the PATH environemnt variable? plus I do not have those folders in my D drive, are they supposed to be created when I install Anaconda? – Gare 21/11, 2019 at 15:9

An also for windows 8.1 – Carnassial 11/1, 2020 at 11:42

This does NOT work if one is not using Anaconda. I have experienced this issue with OSGeo4W64 and QGIS 3.10.2 installations. Adding what I gather are the correct paths to the PATH variable does not fix the issue (ex: C:\Program Files\QGIS 3.10\apps\Python37\Scripts). – Cadmus 18/2, 2020 at 22:35

Anaconda is a default base environment. If one is trying to install modules in a virtual environment, modify activate or activate.bat (on Windows) and include the 3 directories when resetting %PATH%. – Albric 19/5, 2021 at 6:39

No! PATH appears ok but it's not the right answer. After adding your PATH and pip works then, it installed packages to an uncertain place!! Keep on using conda prompt is the correct answer. – Fecteau 17/12, 2021 at 8:43

I was using Miniconda3 installed for the current user on Windows 10, and these directories are already on the PATH, so this didn't work. What worked for me was the answer from @datchung to copy the libcrypto and libsll DLLs to the DLLs folder. – Allanallana 10/8, 2022 at 16:52

MAC OS

I had the same problem on Mac OS(Mojave) and solved the problem as mentioned on this link - Openssl issue.

If you do not have Homebrew or don't know what is Homebrew:

/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

Or if you already have Homebrew installed:

brew update && brew upgrade
brew uninstall --ignore-dependencies openssl; brew install https://github.com/tebelorg/Tump/releases/download/v1.0.0/openssl.rb

Update: Keep in mind, that I had to use --ignore-dependencies flag, because other packages installed that depend on OpenSSL.

Additional if the problem is caused after using pyenv, you can fix it by using:

brew reinstall python

why is github.com/tebelorg/Tump/releases/download/v1.0.0/openssl.rb also added as a dependency? :) I think it should be removed as it is totally unrelated and potentially unsecure – Refugiorefulgence 6/2, 2020 at 12:57

I understand that it could be a security risk but all over users have asked to use the package over the official package link - github.com/kelaberetiv/TagUI/issues/635 – Hoes 11/2, 2020 at 18:55

That solved my problem! Don't forget to echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/openssl/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile – Pliant 4/3, 2020 at 14:18

This solved my problem! Wondering what's that openssl package is though? – Readytowear 9/3, 2020 at 13:8

@Hoes I am actually asking about the openssl package in the github :p. More worried about that. Is this issue quite recent? I never had this issue up till now. Seems like openssl package in brew is broken somehow. Still, much thanks for this solution! – Readytowear 9/3, 2020 at 13:27

I think it is a combination of things that is breaking openssl. Something to do with multiple python versions and openssl. Else it works fine. For me it was more specifically pyenv that broke things. It installs such a lot of shitload. – Hoes 9/3, 2020 at 13:36

@Hoes Now that you mention it. I think I installed some packages using brew as well before this broke. It was gpg. – Readytowear 9/3, 2020 at 15:40

After upgrading from Mojave to Catalina, I hit this. I only needed brew update && brew upgrade for it to work again. Thanks for the advice! – Locality 7/4, 2020 at 11:9

{code}brew update && brew upgrade{code} fixed it for me, though it failed to install python3 in /usr/loca/lib/bin . This was fixed with {code}export PATH="/usr/local/opt/[email protected]/bin:$PATH"; export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/[email protected]/lib"{code} – Out 7/4, 2020 at 18:42

I ran into the same problem, trying to install Python 3.11.1 on Debian-based Raspberry Pi OS. The ssl module in Python >= 3.10 requires OpenSSL 1.1.1 or higher (docs.python.org/3/library/ssl.html#module-ssl). The PI was still running on Stretch (with OpenSSL 1.1.0). After updating OpenSSL I had to run ./configure with the flags --with-openssl=/path/to/openssl --with-openssl-rpath=auto. – Herrin 17/1, 2023 at 11:44

All the answers failed. I debugged using python and then import ssl and saw that it failed loading _ssl.

I'm using Windows 10 and installed Miniconda 3 with Python 3.7.

I solved this error by following this https://github.com/conda/conda/issues/8273

Specifically, I copied the following files from C:\Users\<user>\Miniconda3\Library\bin to C:\Users\<user>\Miniconda3\DLLs:

libcrypto-1_1-x64.dll
libcrypto-1_1-x64.pdb
libssl-1_1-x64.dll

If you work in an environment, it will be from C:\Users\<user>\Miniconda3\envs\<name>\Library\bin to C:\Users\<user>\Miniconda3\envs\<name>\DLLs:

macOS, pyenv

In case of your python being an pyenv installed one, where pyenv is installed with homebrew on macOS, there might me a newer version available which fixes this:

$ brew update && brew upgrade pyenv

Then reinstalling the python version:

$ pyenv install 3.7.2
pyenv: /Users/luckydonald/.pyenv/versions/3.7.2 already exists
continue with installation? (y/N)

Note, it is a bit dirty to overwrite the existing python install like that, but in my case it did work out. Probably cleaner to delete it and then recreate it properly.

Encountered this issue while installing python 3.8 from source on ubuntu. The steps needed to install it successfully alongside the default python 3.7 are summarised below :

sudo apt -y install libssl-dev zlib1g-dev build-essential

wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.8.0/Python-3.8.0.tgz
tar -xf Python-3.8.0.tgz
cd Python-3.8.0/

./configure --enable-optimizations
make
sudo make altinstall

The install instruction for zlib1g-dev and build-essential is redundant, as ubuntu desktop already has these, but was necessary for some of Amazon's EC2 instances. python 3.8.0 is the current release just now, but should be replaced with the latest available.

These instructions are best for keeping python 3.7 as the default for python3, and running python 3.8 in a virtual environment.

Similar to the above solution reinstall the python version with pyenv.

Somehow, I upgraded my openssl which broke the pyenv version python.

pyenv install 3.6.8
python-build: use [email protected] from homebrew
python-build: use readline from homebrew
...

The first line says it relies on the homebrew openssl.

For OpenSUSE in the same manner, but a few changes of listed above packages:

Then cd to Python sources dir and

make

or

And perhaps

ln -s /usr/local/lib64/python3.6/lib-dynload/ /usr/local/lib/python3.6/lib-dynload

should be executed for OpenSUSE users. See Python 3.7 install not working on openSUSE Leap 42.3

I ran into this issue with Visual Studio Code installing pylint from the VS Code prompt. I was able to overcome the issue by opening the Anaconda installation directory and running

pip install pylint

Then VS Code was happy, but that did not fix the issue as running

& C:/Users/happy/Anaconda3/python.exe -m pip install -U pylint

pretty much gave the same error so it seems that VS Code is unable to access the python modules.

Note that VS Code picks up the first python env it see when installed, the bottom left of the screen indicates which env is being used. Clicking on that area allows to set the environment. So even if you ran the pip install for an environment VS Code could be looking at a different one.

Best approach was to make sure that VS code had the correct python environment selected and that same environment is in the system PATH (under System Properties --> Advanced --> Environmental Variables)

Under the Path Variable, Edit and browse to the specific Anaconda directory that you want VSCode to use and add to PATH, I needed to Add the following:

C:\Users\happy\Anaconda3\
C:\Users\happy\Anaconda3\Scripts\
C:\Users\happy\Anaconda3\Library\bin\
C:\Users\happy\Anaconda3\Library\mingw-w64\bin\

Your Anaconda installation directory may differ. One note is that Windows does not have the PATH variable take effect until you restart the terminal. In this case close and re-op VS code. If using a Terminal or PS Shell then close and reopen and check Path to make sure it is included.

The problem probably comes from your installed openssl package version. That was the case for me and I fixed this issue just upgrading it. I'm on Mac OS, using brew :

brew upgrade openssl

If you installed python with brew, this should directly fix the issue with it, as python is dependent on openssl

Newest Python 3.8.4 or higher should able to support https protocol out of box. If you still have old python installation on your pc - either download & install python3 manually, or using Chocolatey:

If you don't have Chocolatey, install it - from here: https://chocolatey.org/docs/installation

You can just copy paste one command line liner and execute it from command prompt with elevated priviledges.

choco install python3

if you don't have python3 installed, or you you have it installed - then:

choco upgrade python3

Notice also that you can use also anaconda distribution, as it has built-in python with https support, but this rather ancient instructions, no need to follow them anymore.

Install anaconda, using command line:

choco install anaconda3

Set environment variables:

set PATH=C:\tools\Anaconda3\Scripts;C:\tools\Anaconda3;C:\tools\Anaconda3\Library\bin;%PATH%

and then run command which failed. In my case it was:

pip install conan

Anaconda uses separate python installation, and pip is also anaconda specific.

Worked for me.

pkg install openssl

Use this to enable ssl.

If someone is using Arch Linux OS, I solved the TLS/SSL problem by running this:

sudo pacman -S openssl

Then I could use pip to install the package I needed:

pip install openpyxl

Update for 2022: the openssl package is 3.0 and python seems to be looking for the 1.x module. I was able to fix with: sudo pacman -S openssl-1.1 – Jephum 10/11, 2022 at 1:54

Go to Anaconda prompt and type (if you have python 3.x installed on your engine) :

py -m pip install pymysql

i was having the same issue and this solved my problem. later after doing this you can import pymysql in power shell or any other prompt.

As Tokci said, it also works for Windows 7.

"Go with the mouse to the Windows Icon (lower left) and start typing "Anaconda". There should show up some matching entries. Select "Anaconda Prompt". A new command window, named "Anaconda Prompt" will open."

Then pip works.

The following also helped to import xgboost: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=05djBSOs1FA

Looking for the linux equivalent ... but anyway, why would this work and using pip from the command line won't? this only makes sense if you already rebuilt anaconda's python with SSL beforehand at some point. – Bielefeld 17/2, 2019 at 3:21

I have no idea why but what you say sounds reasonable – Brooklynese 24/2, 2019 at 12:20

The issue is due to OpenSSL package is missing on your PC.

If pip install openpyxl also gives error.

you can fix this by installing OpenSSL(Win64 OpenSSL v1.1.1g) from below site :

slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html

Restart the IDE you are using, for changes to be in effect.

In Windows 10 SQL Server 19 the solution is known.

Copy the following files:

libssl-1_1-x64.dll
libcrypto-1_1-x64.dll

from the folder

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSSQL15.MSSQLSERVER\PYTHON_SERVICES\Library\bin

to the folder

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSSQL15.MSSQLSERVER\PYTHON_SERVICES\DLLs

Then open a new DOS command shell prompt.

This issue occurs when we compile python from source without installing some packages that helps with ssl. Here is how to fix this in a Debian based Linux system.

sudo apt install build-essential pkg-config zlib1g-dev libncurses5-dev libgdbm-dev libnss3-dev libssl-dev libreadline-dev libffi-dev libsqlite3-dev libbz2-dev
./configure --enable-optimizations
make -j 4 
sudo make altinstall

Note that -j 4 specifies that I want to use 4 CPU threads. You can check how many threads your CPU has by running nproc

Currently there is same issue in Anaconda prompt (Anaconda3) on Windows 10. Here is workaround: https://github.com/ContinuumIO/anaconda-issues/issues/10576

Fixed this without having to change anything related to TSL/SSL.

I was trying to see if the same thing was happening to pip, and saw that pip was broken. Did some digging and realized it's probably caused by Homebrew deleted python@2 on February 1st, 2020.

Running brew uninstall python@2 to delete python2 installed by Homebrew.

Destroyed the virtual env created using python3 and created a new one.
pip3 installing works fine again.

For me, switching to an older version of openssl worked: brew switch openssl 1.0.2t I'm on Mac OS Catalina 10.15.3. Hope it helps. – Anneal 8/6, 2020 at 20:32

I am on macOS and I had used brew but what Vaulstein mentioned in his answer didn't cover my case.

I run the following commands to make sure my current python was not installed by brew

brew list | grep python           
python
python@2

brew info python
[email protected]: stable 3.8.3 (bottled)
Interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming language
https://www.python.org/
Not installed
...

So I download the latest 3.8.5 from https://www.python.org/ and when installing it I saw following information

Certificate verification and OpenSSL

This package includes its own private copy of OpenSSL 1.1.1. The trust certificates in system and user keychains managed by the Keychain Access application and the security command line utility are not used as defaults by the Python ssl module

After installed 3.8.5 it fixed the problem.

I got into this problem using Ubuntu, pyenv and Python 3.8.1 managed by pyenv. There was actually no way to get pip to work correctly, since every time I tried to install anything, including pip itself, the same error showed up. Final solution was to install, via pyenv, a newer version, in this case 3.8.6. Apparently, from 3.8.4 Python is prepared to run SSL/TLS out of the box, so everything worked fine.

I simply solved the problem with following command:

SSL is included by default on this version!

In my case I was running into issues with my $PATH on Linux. This can also happen on MacOS.

Check to see if /usr/bin/pip3 install package_name_goes_here works for you. If so then run which pip3 this will tell you which is the first directory that pip3 is installed in.

If it is something like /usr/local/bin/pip3 which is different from /usr/bin/pip3 then you may need to adjust your $PATH.

Run echo $PATH and copy the result.

The PATH is simply a colon separated list of directories that contain directories. Bash will always return the first instance of the program that you are attempting to execute. Move all the system directories upfront. Here is a list of some of the system directories:

/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/snap/bin

If that fails then verify you have openssl installed by running openssl version -a if not then install openssl.

If you've installed anaconda via scoop, and encounter this error while using pip from within a conda environment you can resolve it by...

Adding these to your path

C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\scoop\apps\anaconda3\current
C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\scoop\apps\anaconda3\current\Scripts
C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\scoop\apps\anaconda3\current\Library
C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\scoop\apps\anaconda3\current\Library\bin

Installing openssl via scoop

scoop install openssl

And copying the following DLLs from ..\anaconda3\Library\bin to ..\anaconda3\DLLs

You’d try from Anaconda Prompt.

You will see (base), now upgrade pip. Example:

(base) C:\Users\Tom>cd ..

(base) C:\Users>cd ..

(base) C:\>python -m pip install --upgrade pip
Requirement already up-to-date: pip in g:\anaconda3\lib\site-packages (20.0.2)

(base) C:\>pip -V
pip 20.0.2 from G:\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\pip (python 3.7)

# Try install
(base) C:\>pip install selenium

This takes a longer time, but will also install or upgrade SSL libraries that Anaconda uses internally. Keep Going here

You could try brew link and it will show you the proper instruction:

$ brew link openssl --force
Warning: Refusing to link macOS provided/shadowed software: [email protected]
If you need to have [email protected] first in your PATH run:
  echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/[email protected]/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc

For compilers to find [email protected] you may need to set:
  export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/[email protected]/lib"
  export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/[email protected]/include"

For pkg-config to find [email protected] you may need to set:
  export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/opt/[email protected]/lib/pkgconfig"

I was getting the same error:

In Anaconda I did it with this command:

Even after trying all the above steps, i was getting the same error. So while we work in a lab and have authorised access to Internet,the issue was with old versions on servers. So i created a virtual environment and placed all my imported modules there. Gave all the necessary permission to the file and the user. Then i gave the internet access to the server system. It worked fine. Try checking for any access and permission issue you might have. Hope it helps. Thanks.

For Miniconda3 under Windows 10 with python=3.7.5 I tried all above suggestions; nothing worked. I had to downgrade to python=3.7.0 which solved the issue

conda install python=3.7.0

Obviously this is quite messy. The answers suggest that an upgrade to 3.8.5 might also work but this had too many side effects in my env.

Install openssl first.

If you are facing this issue in conda environment, you can install openssl using conda install -c anaconda openssl. It enables ssl for you!

This is the problem with your default ssl setting. You gotta download the Python3 and add the path to your system. If you use Pycharm, set the interpreter to your python3 path. Then you can normally use the pip3 without error.
