urlopen error [Errno 1]

[AgentGrady]

I am having a problem, whenever I try to download a blog I get this error message urlopen error [Errno 1, I tried entering an API code and running the CMD as a administrator but nothing seems to solve it. What am I doing wrong here?

[bbolli]

Can you show the command you entered and the complete output?

[AgentGrady]

Certainly

Please try tumblr_backup.py -S askemperorclaudius-blog

[AgentGrady]

OK, I tried that and I get the exact same problem

[bbolli]

I'm not sure if this is a duplicate. #226 refers to macOS, not Windows.

@bbolli This can occur on Windows if using a really old Python build (2.7.2 or older), as TLS 1.2 support was added to OpenSSL 1.0.1 released on March 14, 2012. But that isn't a tumblr-utils issue as it is trivial to update to Python 2.7.18 on Windows.

So, @AgentGrady, what's your Python version?
