executor failed running [/bin/sh -c pip install -r requirements.txt]: exit code: 1

But when upgarding pip, same error shows.

ERROR: Could not install packages due to an EnvironmentError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='files.pythonhosted.org', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /packages/ac/cf/0cc542fc93de2f3b9b53cb979c7d1118cffb93204afb46299a9f858e113f/pip-21.1-py3-none-any.whl (Caused by SSLError(SSLCertVerificationError(1, '[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:1123)')))

I tried, RUN pip install --trusted-host=pypi.python.org --trusted-host=pypi.org --trusted-host=files.pythonhosted.org -r requirements.txt, in my docker file but its not helping me.

I tried, uninstalling all python interpreter and reinstalling but same result.

We are not using proxy server and i can ping files.pythonhosted.org properly

Hope you someone can help me on this. Thank you.

Verify if certs are in place.

~ $ python3.7 -c "import ssl; print(ssl.get_default_verify_paths())"
DefaultVerifyPaths(
cafile='/etc/pki/tls/cert.pem', 
capath='/etc/pki/tls/certs', 
openssl_cafile_env='SSL_CERT_FILE', 
openssl_cafile='/etc/pki/tls/cert.pem', 
openssl_capath_env='SSL_CERT_DIR', 
openssl_capath='/etc/pki/tls/certs')
