Hi,

I had to reimage my machine recently, and am now reinstalling all the software.

I am using the Anaconda framework and using Spyder to run Python.

However, when I try to install CoolProp by opening the Anaconda prompt and typing

pip install CoolProp

I get the error appended below.

I can "ping pypi.org" from the local machine, with a 25 ms time

Any idea why "pip install CoolProp" isn't working?

Thanks.

Todd

A couple further comments:

- I believe the correct install shouldn't use pip but rather

conda install conda-forge::coolprop

- I think there may be a network security issue that is blocking any installation, as even doing something as simple as

conda update anaconda

ends with an error message

(base) C:\Users\tsalamon>conda update anaconda

I always install CoolProp from pip, personally.  What version of python & operating system do you have?

This is Python 3.8 in a Windows 10 environment. I am currently using the Mini-conda distribution.

I ended up finding out this is a firewall issue. One workaround is to install CoolProp outside of the firewall. ;-)

It's not the most elegant or efficient, but it works.
