OSMnx graph_from_place

[qwer345345]

Problem description (what did you do, what did you expect to happen, and what actually happened)

Hi! I'm a beginner with python, now I'm working with osmnx package, when I dealt with function graph_from_place, here always comes the error 'RuntimeError: b'no arguments in initialization list''

What operating system, architecture, Python version, and OSMnx version are you using?

I work on windows 10, python 3.7 and my OSMNX version is 0.9

Code snippet that independently and completely reproduces the issue

My code is as following
import osmnx as ox
bangalore_street = ox.graph_from_place ('Bangalore, India', network_type = 'drive')

and I also tried the following code, but it doesnt work.

import os
os.environ["PROJ_LIB"] = "C:\Anaconda\envs\env_name\Library\share"

the error shows

You need to customize:

os.environ["PROJ_LIB"] = "C:\Anaconda\envs\env_name\Library\share"

to match the path on your own machine. You should install OSMnx in a virtual environment, and env_name should reflect the name of that environment.
