I tried to install packages using pip but i got this error. i've been breaking my head since a week. can someone tell me what the error is? and how to resolve it

Answer 1

That is an issue with your connection to PyPI, the Python package repository; the connection between your machine and PyPI servers gets aborted.

If you're in a corporate environment, you may need to tell pip to use your corporate HTTP(S) proxy .

On the other hand, you may also already have a proxy (mis)configured, and it's that proxy that's aborting the connection.
