Solution

  • If you check the error message, you are getting connection timeout which is most probably related with your proxy configurations.

    Use this command to see proxy_servers

    conda config --show

    If any proxy server is present, you can remove it by

    conda config --remove-key proxy_servers.

    It will remove saved proxy servers from anaconda configuration. Then run,

    conda clean --source-cache

    However if you are behind a company proxy, you have to set them correctly.

    set http_proxy=http://username: [email protected]:{port}
set https_proxy=https://username: [email protected]:{port}
