Cant import into Jupyter Notebook #53

Closed ppoiter closed 5 years ago

ppoiter commented 6 years ago

I was having an issue similar to that of @JRHutson but his uninstall/reinstall solution does not work for me. I am attempting to import into a python 3 Jupyter Notebook but it times out with a connection error.

Any ideas? Thanks :)

Not sure what could be the cause. What is timing out? Importing the module? When the module is initalized, it queries Cragislist to get the valid sites. Could it be that something is blocking requests to external URLs?

Can you try running:

import requests
_ = requests.get('http://www.craigslist.org/about/sites')

Does that time out?
