'HTTP Error 403: SSL is required' on using Ubuntu shell

So I am manually installing StarCluster on my PC using instructions from here but am getting this error:

urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 403: SSL is required

What do I do?

Solution

  • Starcluster's official python project page says it does not support Python3. It supports Python2.6 and Python2.7

    The package can be installed using pip. There are some prerequisites for this.

    $ sudo apt-get install build-essential python python-dev python-openssl

    Once these packages are installed you should be able to install StarCluster.

    $ sudo pip install StarCluster

    If you are working in a python virtual environment. You don't need sudo

    $ pip install StarCluster
