CondaHTTPError: HTTP 000 CONNECTION FAILED

Any time I try to install a new package via CONDA INSTALL NAME, I get the following message:

CondaError: CondaHTTPError: HTTP 000 CONNECTION FAILED for url https://conda.anaconda.org/conda-forge/linux-64/libuuid-1.0.3-1.tar.bz2 Elapsed: -

An HTTP error occurred when trying to retrieve this URL. HTTP errors are often intermittent, and a simple retry will get you on your way.

CONDA UPDATE CONDA and CONDA UPDATE ANCONDA worked

I have the same error! I'm running the latest version of Anaconda (newly installed today), on a Linux guest OS. Unfortunately CONDA UPDATE CONDA and CONDA UPDATE ANACONDA didn't work for me.

I also tried the following, without success:

[whaasphd]

conda config --set ssl_verify no

conda list --explicit shows only IP addresses that start with https://repo.continuum.io/pkgs/main/linux-64 https://conda.anaconda.org/bioconda/linux-64 https://conda.anaconda.org/conda-forge/linux-64 etc., no outdated IP addresses

Finally, conda install saffrontree -v returns:
