Dear Team ,

I am not able to install python libraries like pandas , numpy and getting this error ..

PS C:\Users\z0032wvy\Desktop\GOA_ISO> pip install pandas

Thanks for reaching out. I see you are getting the error that pip can’t connect to the internet because of a proxy or network restriction.

Solutions you can try:

1. Check Internet Connection

     Make sure you open websites (e.g., [https://pypi.org](https://pypi.org)) in your browser. If the internet                        works fine, the issue is likely due to a proxy.

2. Upgrade pip

     Sometimes upgrading pip helps:

                Python -m pip install –upgrade pip

3. Configure Proxy (if using office/ school network)

     If you are behind a proxy, configure pip with your proxy:

                 Pip installs pandas --proxy = [https://username:password@proxyserver:port](https://username:password@proxyserver:port)

     Or set it globally:

                 Pip config set global.proxy [https://username:password@proxyserver:port](https://username:password@proxyserver:port)

4. Disable Proxy (if not needed)

      If your system is forcing pip to use a proxy, remove it

Setx HTTP_PROXY “”

Setx HTTPS_PROXY “”

      Restart VS Code after running it.

5. Try direct Installation from Wheel (offline)

     If proxy keeps blocking:

               ·         Go to PyPI Pandas page.

               ·         Download the .whl file for your Python version.

               ·         Install manually:

      Pip install pathto\pandas-x.x.x-cp39-cp39-win_amd54.whl

In short-

· This error is not about VS Code itself, it’s about network/proxy blocking pip.

· Either configure pip with proxy or use an offline wheel.

Let me know if you need any further help with this. We'll be happy to assist.

If you find this helpful, please mark this as answered.

Additional solutions you can try:

1.      Use –trusted-host to bypass SSL issues

Sometimes pip fails because SSL verification fails behind a proxy/firewall:

                Pip install pandas --trusted-host pypi.org --trusted-host files.pythonhosted.org

2.      Clear pip cache

Corrupted cache may block installation:

Pip cache purge Pip install pandas

3.      Set environment variables manually(without proxy)

If proxy is incorrect set in system environment:

Setx PIP_NO_PROXY “*” Set PIP_INDEX_URL [https://pypi.org/simple](https://pypi.org/simple)

4.      Upgrade Python + pip via official installer

·         Download the latest Python installer from python.org

·         During installation, check “Add Python to PATH”.

·         After installation:

Python -m ensurepip –upgrade Python -m pip install –upgrade

5.      Use a VPN/Mobile Hotspot

Some networks(like office/school)block direct pip traffic.

Try installing while connected to a VPN or mobile hotspot to bypass restrictions.

6.      Install using Anaconda(alternative to pip)

If pip is blocked:

Conda install pandas

(requires Anaconda/miniconda installed)

7.      Direct download and install

·         Go to:

https://pypi.org/project/pandas/#files

·         Download the .whl file matching your python version and system

·         Install with

Pip install path\to\pandas-2.2.2-cp311-cp311-win_amd64.whl

In short:

If proxy config didn’t work, this is likely network restriction or wrong environment setup.

So, you can try

·         Trusted-host

·         Clearing cache

·         Reinstalling python/pip

·         Using VPN/hotspot

·         Or conda/offline wheel installation.

You can also try this alternative solution

1.      Configure pip to use your corporate proxy(official pip docs)

If the network requires an outbound proxy, set pip to use it either per -command or globally

Commands

#one time install using proxy(replace username:password and host:port)

                                Python -m pip install pandas –proxy=” username:password and host:port”

                                #set global pip proxy(Windows example)

                                Python -m pip config set global.proxy=” username:password and host:port”

2.      Temporarily bypass SSL inspection with –trusted-host(when TLS/SSl is being intercepted)

If a TLS-inspecting proxy is breaking certificate validation, mark PyPI hosts as trusted for the install.

Reference link:

python - pip install fails with "connection error: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:598)" - Stack Overflow

Why: --trusted-host disables strict HTTPS verification for the given host so pip can download packages when TLS is interrupted.

3.      Reinstall or bootstrap pip (official PyPA get-pip)if pip itself is broken

If pip is corrupted or failing due to environment issues, re-bootstrap pip using the official get-pip.py.

4.      Use conda/miniconda if allowed(often works in corporate setups)

If pip/network is blocked but conda is allowed or can be installed , use conda to install common data packages.

5.      Visual Studio/VS code networking notes

If the user runs VS Code or Visual Studio, confirm VS code/ Visual Studio network/proxy settings and allowlisting. Microsoft has guidance for using their tools behind proxies(what endpoints to allow and hoe VS code handles authenticated proxies)

Reference docs:

·         Network Connections in Visual Studio Code

·         Install and use behind a firewall or proxy server - Visual Studio (Windows) | Microsoft Learn
