ReadTimeoutError/pip not installling any library

Question

as written in the title and as you can see in the first image I'm trying to install pandas and I get this error each time and not just pandas but all the libraries , I know this question has been asked but none of the answers that I found helped me . I'm not using a proxy .

C:\Users\yoooo>pip install pandas

tried to ping pypi.org and got this

 C:\Users\yoooo>ping pypi.org

pip and python versions (I can't update pip obviously).

C:\Users\yoooo>python --version

Python 3.8.6

C:\Users\yoooo>pip --version

pip 20.2.1

versions

what do you think the problem is ? and if it's caused by my internet provider what should I tell them ? telling them I'm not able to install python libraries will not be understandable . PS:

tried this and and it led to the same error eventually

C:\Users\yoooo>pip --default-timeout=1000 install pandas

Please post code as text, not images. It improves readability and easily copy-pastable — Rocket Nikita, Jan 17 '21 at 12:29
@AbdulAzizBarkat sadly no , and even with 1000 seconds as timeout — Mohamed Abomokh, Jan 17 '21 at 12:30
@RocketNikita there is no code , just some commands the commands are as follows : pip install pandas ping pypi.org python --version pip -- version — Mohamed Abomokh, Jan 17 '21 at 12:32

python.exe -m pip install numpy --proxy="179.185.199.195:8080" yep using this command actually helped :)) but is it safe ? what can I fix to undo this ? — Mohamed Abomokh, Jan 17 '21 at 13:02

You need to give precedence to IPv4 over IPv6.

To do so, open CMD with administrator permissions and apply the following command:

netsh interface ipv6 set prefixpolicy ::ffff:0:0/96 46 4

This was my problem but the command `netsh` is not available on my end. – Maoz Zadok Apr 28 '21 at 10:51
@MaozZadok what did you end up using? – Alex Mar 17 '22 at 02:37

@Alex you can see my solution below "In my case, ubuntu 20.4, changing it to prefer IPv4 over IPV6, resolved the issue" – Maoz Zadok Mar 17 '22 at 10:16

Try adding the default timeout flag to pip:

pip --default-timeout=1000 install pandas

If that doesn't work, download the wheel file from here. Then change directory to where you saved it. Then run:

pip install <.whl file name>

Have you installed any other libraries? – DapperDuck Jan 17 '21 at 12:50
yep numpy , pyside 2,venv and more – Mohamed Abomokh Jan 17 '21 at 12:52
Pandas is a large library. You might just have a slow internet connection. Try raising the default timeout. – DapperDuck Jan 17 '21 at 12:55
I have a speed of ~160Mbs currently and I'm using an ethernet , so I don't think it's a slow connectivity problem . – Mohamed Abomokh Jan 17 '21 at 12:58
I'm not sure why this is happening then. I updated my answer to include details about how to install from wheel files. – DapperDuck Jan 17 '21 at 13:07
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52328655/pip-cant-install-any-package the first comment from this helped me , but I'm not sure that it is safe. Yeah I think eventually I'll just manually download wheels or just use a free proxy – Mohamed Abomokh Jan 17 '21 at 13:10
Yeah, I wouldn't trust free proxies because there is a chance they can read the data passed through them. I recommend just manually installing the wheel. – DapperDuck Jan 17 '21 at 13:15
I tried using my IP instead of the random proxy (e.g. --proxy="my.personal.ip.ipv4:8080" )and It caused the same problem so it looks like my IP is causing the problem , I'll try contacting the internet provider and ask them to change my IP or something like that . if that doesn't work then I'll just have to download them manually . – Mohamed Abomokh Jan 17 '21 at 13:20

In my case, ubuntu 20.4, changing it to prefer IPv4 over IPV6, resolved the issue.

I was using strace pip install <some packages>, and noticed that IPv6 is been used (maybe there is a simple way).

this is how I change it to prefer IPv4 over IPV6: edit the file /etc/gai.conf and uncomment the line:

precedence ::ffff:0:0/96  100

restart is not required.
