Answer 1

You should try execute pip with --proxy paramenter like this:

pip --proxy <proxy> install <module>

Or you can try setting up environment-variables as explainded here https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/user_guide/?highlight=proxy#using-a-proxy-server

Nevertheless, using a VPN should not prompt this kind of problemns, probably it's not well configured therefore, all the traffic doesn't go through it. Check that you have your 0.0.0.0 IP route pointing to the vpn first.

Answer 2

If you use VPN try to disconnect it, it will solve the problem. VPN changes the proxy server setting.

Answer 3

Only solution for me was to upgrade pip via whl.

Download the latest whl and then pip installed the pip upgrade (pip-21.2.4-py3-none-any.whl) from the whl.

Once I upgraded PIP, then PIP could install as expected.

Copying additional detail from comment as per request.

Go to pypi.org and search for pip.py (pypi.org/search/?q=pip.py&o=). Download the file to your local computer (pip-21.2.4-py3-none-any.whl). Then, at prompt, "pip install ". It fixed mine. Hopefully it does yours too!

Answer 4

There is another better way to solve this. Just need to upgrade pip version by using:

python -m pip install --upgrade pip
