ImportError: urllib3 v2.0 only supports OpenSSL 1.1.1+

[asukan007]

Seeing "ImportError: urllib3 v2.0 only supports OpenSSL 1.1.1+, currently the 'ssl' module is compiled with OpenSSL 1.0.2k-fips 26 Jan 2017. See: urllib3/urllib3#2168" when I import this library. it pointed me to this issue, can someone help me with what's the fix for this?

what version of python are you running? which os? for example, the new apple silicon computers ship with a python ssl library that is compiled with libreSSL instead of openSSL, so you either need to build from source or install a version of python that is already compiled with the correct openSSL.

you'll see which version of openSSL is a dependency on homebrew, for example, with:

$ brew deps --tree python
python@3.11
├── mpdecimal
├── openssl@1.1
│   └── ca-certificates
├── sqlite
│   └── readline
└── xz

If you are using Certbot you can set specific version of urllib like this with pip:
sudo pip install --upgrade urllib3==1.26.15
To avoid version problems. And with certbot can use this:
sudo /opt/certbot/bin/pip install --upgrade urllib3==1.26.15

@martinamunoz I am not using certbot with sudo , can you please suggest the other alternate way or version of urllib3 which working fine with python 3.9

I am using this liberaly in AWS Glue.
I had attempted to specify the openssl version, but it didn't work.
Instead, I specified the version of urllib3==1.26.15 and it worked!

Where did you specify the urllib3 version in glue?

[huyenuet]

@Akanksh29 you can use this command to install a specific version of urllib3
pip install urllib3==1.26.6
I had the same issue and Version 1.26.6 worked for me.

@huyenuet Which version of python were you using?

@Akanksh29

Where did you specify the urllib3 version in glue?

If your requirements allow you to obtain wheel files from PyPI, you can install and use urllib3 v1.26.15 by specifying the following job parameters in glue.

job parameter in Glue

• Key: --additional-python-modules
• Value: google-cloud-bigquery==3.4.1 urllib3==1.26.15

Hi, I would like to know how you were able to specify this - I don't have the "--additional-python-modules" key option in the Glue Job Parameter Options

Nevermind, I've resolved it. In my case I was using a version of requests library that was too recent. Downgrading to version 2.29 fixed the issue.

OP determined the error. The error was not with our library. Closing.

this doesn't work for me on Amazon Linux 2 using python3.8 and python3.9 installed with pyenv
