I'm having a problem with python package requests-html. When the package is trying to download chromium, I'm getting an error:

ssl.SSLCertVerificationError: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:1056)

It's the same problem as here and it has been resolved for Mac. Any idea how can I fix this on Windows? In case it matters, installing packages with PIP works fine. Windows 8, Python 3.7.

Have you tried using verify=False in your request args?

This should make the request ignore SSL Cerificate requirements.

  • I've tried to do that, but it's not my code that causes the problem but the `download_chromium` function in requests-html package. Tried to change it, but there is no obvious place to add `verify=false`. The code is really complex, there is no `requests.get` or anything like that. – MKaras May 25 '19 at 12:34
