  • Certificate issues installing DepthAI on Windows

Hi, I am trying to get DepthAI running on Windows 10
As far as I can tell, I have successfully cloned the latest depthAI repo, and I am on the step where I go to the examples folder and run python install_requirements.py.
I am getting what seems to be certificates errors, I'll put some code snippet below.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

$ python install_requirements.py

Hi @jremba
Are you on company internet? We've seen this happen when the network is configured with firewalls and proxies.

Thanks,
Jaka

    Hi @jremba
    Depends on what the cause is. I'm just going to paste the GPT response:

    It seems like the SSL certificate verification is failing when trying to download files from the internet, which is common when behind a company network with restrictive firewall or proxy settings. Here are some potential workarounds to address this issue:

    1. Disable SSL Verification (Not Recommended for Production)

    You can try disabling SSL verification temporarily by setting an environment variable or using a flag for pip. This is a quick fix but not recommended for production or secure environments as it disables SSL verification.

    Option 1: Disable SSL in Python using an Environment Variable

    You can set an environment variable to disable SSL verification when using Python's requests library.

    export PYTHONHTTPSVERIFY=0

    Option 2: Disable SSL in pip commands

    Modify the script to pass --trusted-host and --disable-pip-version-check options when installing dependencies:

    pip install --trusted-host pypi.org --trusted-host files.pythonhosted.org <package>

    2. Use a Proxy

    If you are behind a corporate proxy, you'll need to configure your environment or the Python process to use it.

    Option 1: Configure Proxy for Python and Pip

    Add your proxy settings to the environment variables in your terminal:

    export HTTP_PROXY="http://your-proxy-server:port"
export HTTPS_PROXY="http://your-proxy-server:port"

    You can also include proxy settings in pip commands:

    pip install <package> --proxy http://your-proxy-server:port

    Option 2: Configure Proxy for requests in Python Code

    If you're using the requests library directly (as in the error), you can modify the code to explicitly pass proxy settings:

    proxies = {
    'http': 'http://your-proxy-server:port',
    'https': 'http://your-proxy-server:port'
}
requests.get('https://example.com', proxies=proxies)

    3. Install Certificates Manually

    If your company network uses custom SSL certificates, you can download the necessary certificates and install them into your Python environment.

    Steps:

    1. Ask your IT department for the root certificate used by the proxy/firewall.

    2. Add the certificate to your system or directly into your Python environment.


      You can add it to your system certificates or directly to Python by placing it in the cacert.pem file, which is used by Python's requests library. The location of cacert.pem can be found by running:

         python -m certifi

    3. Add the certificate to this file and try running the script again.

    4. Manually Download the Required Files

    If the issue is specific to downloading the depthai_calib.json file and other resources, you can manually download these files using a browser or a download tool that works behind your corporate proxy, and place them in the appropriate location in your project.

    5. Contact IT for Whitelisting

    Your company's firewall or proxy might be blocking certain external resources. Contact your IT department to whitelist:

    • pypi.org
    • files.pythonhosted.org
    • artifacts.luxonis.com

    This way, your system will be allowed to download dependencies and necessary files.

    Conclusion:

    The most appropriate solution will depend on your network environment. For short-term testing, disabling SSL verification may work, but for longer-term solutions, you should use proper proxy settings or request certificates from your IT department.

    6 days later

    The proxy is intercepting all of the packets - we do have the proxy certificate. How do we use that certificate to resolve these SSL errors?

      If you have the certs, try running this (I assume all traffic runs through the proxy):

      curl --cacert ~/path/to/cert.pem [OPTIONAL IF YOU HAVE CLIENT CERTS AS WELL --cert client.pem] -L https://artifacts.luxonis.com/artifactory --verbose

      This should return successful.

      Then you can do:

      export REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE=~/path/to/cert.pem
      and for pip certificates (might not be needed)
      export PIP_CERT=~/path/to/cert.pem

      --This was tested on custom proxy, but should work on company proxy as well--

      Thanks
      Jaka

        Hi,

        All traffic does run through the proxy. However, I am on a windows machine, and those look like Linux commands. I tried it in a GIT bash as the internet suggests curl is supported there, but it does not seem to be working. I'm getting an error:
        $ curl --cacert C:\Python312\Lib\site-packages\pip\_vendor\certifi\cacert.pem -L https://artifacts.luxonis.com/artifactory --verbose

        * Host artifacts.luxonis.com:443 was resolved.

        * IPv6: (none)

        * IPv4: 172.67.216.90, 104.21.86.67

        * Trying 172.67.216.90:443...

        * Connected to artifacts.luxonis.com (172.67.216.90) port 443

        * schannel: disabled automatic use of client certificate

        * schannel: failed to open CA file 'C😛ython312Libsite-packagespip_vendorcertificacert.pem': The system cannot find the file specified.

        * closing connection #0

        curl: (77) schannel: failed to open CA file 'C😛ython312Libsite-packagespip_vendorcertificacert.pem': The system cannot find the file specified.

        (.venv)

        Please advise, thanks.

          Seems to be windows shenanigans so I'm attaching GPT guide:

          Steps to resolve the issue on Windows:

          1. Ensure the path is correctly formatted:
            Windows paths need either double backslashes (\\) or forward slashes (/) to avoid being misinterpreted by curl.

            Change this:

                C:\Python312\Lib\site-packages\pip\_vendor\certifi\cacert.pem

            To this:

                C:/Python312/Lib/site-packages/pip/_vendor/certifi/cacert.pem

          2. Retry the curl command:
            Run the curl command again with the corrected path. Example:

                curl --cacert C:/Python312/Lib/site-packages/pip/_vendor/certifi/cacert.pem -L https://artifacts.luxonis.com/artifactory --verbose

          3. Check the certificate file: Ensure that the file path actually points to a valid CA certificate file. You can manually inspect the location and confirm that cacert.pem exists there.

          4. Use environment variables for certificate paths:
            If you want pip and other Python tools to use the custom certificate, set the environment variables for your session:

                export REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE=C:/path/to/cert.pem
    export PIP_CERT=C:/path/to/cert.pem

          5. Windows Command Prompt or PowerShell alternative:
            If you’re running these commands in the Windows Command Prompt or PowerShell instead of Git Bash, the path formatting is slightly different. In the Command Prompt, use double backslashes:

                curl --cacert C:\\Python312\\Lib\\site-packages\\pip\\_vendor\\certifi\\cacert.pem -L https://artifacts.luxonis.com/artifactory --verbose

            Or, in PowerShell:

                curl --cacert C:/Python312/Lib/site-packages/pip/_vendor/certifi/cacert.pem -L https://artifacts.luxonis.com/artifactory --verbose

          6. Set environment variables for Windows:
            You can set environment variables in Windows through the GUI or directly in PowerShell like this:

                $env:REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE="C:/path/to/cert.pem"
    $env:PIP_CERT="C:/path/to/cert.pem"

          Thanks
