requests.exceptions.ReadTimeout,
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'ReadTimeout'
Requets@2.2.1 does not have ReadTimeout. I am updating the requests dependency listed in setup.py.
You can manually upgrade requests to the latest version using the following command:
pip install --upgrade requestsThat should solve your issue. Please report if you are still having trouble.
I tested things and 2.4.0 was the minimum version of requests where everything worked without errors like the one you listed.
Please note that you need to remove your .pickle file. It seems I am serializing a session object and it is not compatible between different versions of requests. I have raised another issue about this.
Thank you. Updating request solved my problem.
