Error on Anaconda creating new environment using conda
command on Windows 7
>conda create -n deep python=3.5 anaconda
Solving environment: failed
CondaHTTPError: HTTP 000 CONNECTION FAILED for url <https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/pro/win-64/repodata.json.bz2>
Elapsed: -
An HTTP error occurred when trying to retrieve this URL.
HTTP errors are often intermittent, and a simple retry will get you on your way.
If your current network has https://www.anaconda.com blocked, please file
a support request with your network engineering team.
SSLError(MaxRetryError('HTTPSConnectionPool(host=\'repo.anaconda.com\', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /pkgs/pro/win-64/repodata.json.bz2 (Caused by SSLError("Can\'t connect to HTTPS URL because the SSL module is not available."))'))
This error can be fix by adding several line in PATH
variable in Windows 7:
In my case, adding line :
E:\Users\user\Anaconda3\Scripts;E:\Users\user\Anaconda3\Library\bin;E:\Users\user\Anaconda3
Will fix the error.
