I am facing the below error while installing Spacy.

requests.exceptions.SSLError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='raw.githubusercontent.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /explosion/spacy-models/master/compatibility.json (Caused by SSLError(SSLCertVerificationError(1, '[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:1129)')))

Command i'm running : python -m spacy download en_core_web_md

  • Hello, I'm a spaCy dev. We've had reports of errors like that before but it's always been an issue with user Internet connections. Maybe you're on a corporate intranet or an unreliable connection or something? – polm23 Jul 01 '21 at 10:39
  • Hey, thanks for response. Yes i'm on a corporate network. Could you please help me fixing it. – krkc Jul 01 '21 at 12:20
  • Unfortunately we can't do anything about it because there's nothing wrong on our end, you'll have to ask your IT department for help. – polm23 Jul 02 '21 at 03:50
  • Actually, it might be an issue with your Python being old or something, try the instructions here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55742788/ssl-certificate-verify-failed-error-while-downloading-python-m-spacy-download – polm23 Jul 02 '21 at 03:55

I have fixed it by following the below steps.

Edited the .condarc file with ssl = false
while installing the anaconda, the default checkbox for PATH setup leave as it is.

Thanks
