Pip Is Configured With Locations That Require Tls/Ssl, However the Ssl Module in Python Is Not Available

pip gives error pip is configured with locations that require TLS/SSL, however the ssl module in Python is not available. in mac

The answers above was not working for me, any use of pip command was giving me the same error.

I finally solved the issue by re-installing the python3 using pyenv like below

pyenv install 3.7.0

# pyenv: /Users/devbhadurkhadka/.pyenv/versions/3.7.0 already exists
# continue with installation? (y/N) y

Thanks everyone for there answer

WARNING: pip is configured with locations that require TLS/SSL, however the ssl module in Python is not available. Ubuntu 21.04 Python 3.8.10

libssl-dev is required to build the ssl module from source.

If you install Python from the package repositories, you will be installing a pre-built binary, so you won't need the openssl development files on your own machine, because these files are sort of 'baked-in' to the release.

But if you build Python from source yourself, you will need to install the libssl-dev (openssl development files) package in order to build Python with the ssl module.

You can check whether you have libssl-dev installed by looking at the output of:

dpkg -s libssl-dev

If it is not installed, you can install it with (may require privileges e.g. sudo):

apt-get install libssl-dev

If you then rebuild Python from source the ssl module should be available.

NOTE: There are other dependencies too which might be missing and result in a less than fully-functional Python installation. Pay attention to the output you get when building. A (maybe incomplete) list of these dependencies' names in the Ubuntu repositories is: libreadline-gplv2-dev libncursesw5-dev libssl-dev libsqlite3-dev tk-dev libgdbm-dev libc6-dev libbz2-dev

How to fix pip is configured with locations that require TLS/SSL, however the ssl module in Python is not available when installing Tensorflow?

Try running below command to fix this issue:

pip install --upgrade
pip install ssl

Please create an virtual_environment to install TensorFlow in Anaconda.

Follow below code to install TensorFlow in virtual_environment:

conda create -n tf tensorflow  #Create a Virtual environment(tf).
conda activate tf              #Activate the Virtual environment
pip install tensorflow         #install TensorFlow in it.

Note: You need to activate the virtual_environment each time you want to use TensorFlow.
