My environment:

  • macOS 10.14.6
  • Python 2.7.10
  • Python 3.6.5
  • pip 10.0.1

My situation:

I am trying to use OpenCV. When I write this command

$ pip3 install virtualenv virtualenvwrapper

and then pip say this.

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

You are using pip version 10.0.1, however version 19.3.1 is available.

You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.

So I try this

pip install --upgrade pip

and then

-bash: pip: command not found

I also did this

pip3 install --upgrade pip

and then

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

Could not fetch URL https://pypi.org/simple/pip/: There was a problem confirming the ssl certificate: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='pypi.org', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /simple/pip/ (Caused by SSLError("Can't connect to HTTPS URL because the SSL module is not available.",)) - skipping

Requirement already up-to-date: pip in /usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages (10.0.1)

What I tried

1: Uninstall pip

sudo pip uninstall pip

2: Uninstall Homebrew

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

3: Reinstall Homebrew and the packages

4: Downgrade Python 3.7 to Python 3.6 to install OpenCV.

    Try `pip3 install --upgrade pip` since that's the version you want to upgrade. – martineau Jan 07 '20 at 00:34
  • I also tried what you pointed out. But it went wrong like below. pip is configured with locations that require TLS/SSL, however the ssl module in Python is not available. – araya Jan 07 '20 at 00:48
