while downloading gensim on windows machine i am getting error There was a problem confirming the ssl certificate.
Have checked multiple threads on SO and youtube as well but unable to fix the issue. The same issue is appearing for some other packages as well. Tried loading the package from anaconda as well as from pip
pip install gensim
conda install -c conda-forge gensim
The error reads as :
Could not fetch URL https://pypi.org/simple/gensim/: There was a problem confirming the ssl certificate: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='pypi.org', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /simple/gensim/ (Caused by SSLError(SSLCertVerificationError(1, '[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:1056)'))) - skipping
