Installation of certificate in pip

Home page > Security certificate > Installation of certificate in pip

Download the Security certificate from here http://netfree.link/netfree-ca.crt and save it on the computer.

Now create a text file named pip.ini (in Linux pip.conf) in the folder named pip in this path:

C:\Users\ <users folder> \AppData\Roaming\pip

(If the folder does not exist, create it)

Write in the pip.ini file this content:

 [global] 
 cert =	C:\netfree-ca.crt

Instead of the file path (C:/netfree-ca.crt) you should write the path where you saved the Security certificate.

Alternatively you can cancel the need for a certificate on the source sites of pip by adding the following lines to the above file:

 [global]
 trusted-host = pypi.python.org
   pypi.org
   files.pythonhosted.org
