Upgrade pip as follows:
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py | python
Note: You may need to use sudo python
above if not in a virtual environment.
(Note that upgrading pip
using pip
i.e pip install --upgrade pip
will also not upgrade it correctly. Its just a chicken-and-egg issue. pip
wont work unless using TLS >=1.2)
As mentioned in this detailed answer, this is due to the recent TLS deprecation for pip. Python.org sites have stopped support for TLS versions 1.0 and 1.1.
From the Python status page:
Completed - The rolling brownouts are finished, and TLSv1.0 and TLSv1.1 have been disabled. Apr 11, 15:37 UTC
For Pycharm (virtualenv) users:
Run virtual environment with shell. (replace "./venv/bin/activate" to your own path)
source ./venv/bin/activate
Run upgrade
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py | python
Restart your pycharm, and check your python interpreter in Preference.
@Anupam solution worked for me however I had to use sudo
and specify the exact location of my virtual python environment
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py | sudo /Users/{your user name}/{path to python}/bin/python
