requests.exceptions.ChunkedEncodingError — existing connection forcibly closed by remote host

[crafter312]

Hello,

I'm a newcomer to Tortoise, and have been trying to figure out how to install it on Windows in an Anaconda environment. I started by trying to follow the conda installation instructions under the Local Installation portion of the README file. After installing, I used the following command in the correct Anaconda environment to test everything:

python tortoise/do_tts.py --output_path /results --preset ultra_fast --voice geralt --text "Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a bananna."

However, I had to follow issue #196 to fix some errors that kept popping up. Additionally, after fixing all of these errors, I had to chase down a handful of missing dependencies. I found this puzzling, since the README file implies that following the conda installation method should reduce the need to chase dependency issues, but that's beside the point.

I have not been able to find anything to help me fix my latest error, which reads as follows:

requests.exceptions.ChunkedEncodingError: ("Connection broken: ConnectionResetError(10054, 'An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host', None, 10054, None)", ConnectionResetError(10054, 'An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host', None, 10054, None))

This was preceeded by a couple of similar errors and their accompanying tracebacks, so I have attached the full error message below.
