Already tried to clean Eikon cache and to reboot PC with no success.

I'm siting behind the corporate firewall.

Tried to run with the clean virtualenv and latest Eikon. It doesn't find the .portInUse (while 1.1.2 version finds them, see the log above):

Hi,

As mentionned beside, the response {"code":500,"message":"unable to get local issuer certificate","statusMessage":"Internal Server Error"} is received from the proxy.

We assume that could be caused by a security setting specific to you domain and/or network.

To isolate your issue, could you run following code and share the result (take care to hide your app_key).

import requests
import eikon as ek

r = requests.get(url="http://localhost:9060/api/status")
print("STATUS:\n", r.text)

body = {
    "AppKey": <your app key>,
    "AppScope": "rapi",
    "ApiVersion": "1",
    "LibraryName": "Eikon Python Library",
    "LibraryVersion": ek.__version__
}
r = requests.post(url="http://localhost:9060/api/handshake",
                  headers={"Content-Type": "application/json"},
                  json=body)
print("HANDSHAKE:\n", r.text)

In the meantime, a 1.1.6.post2 eikon was released.
It shouldn't fix your issue but the test will be useful if you agree to upgrade to ("pip install --no-cache-dir --upgrade eikon").

@pierre.faurel Can you please advise on this issue.

ivan.cherkasov

Is there any option to disable SSL in eikon module?

ivan.cherkasov

I tried

ek.get_desktop_session()._http_session.verify = False

but it doesn't help, still get

Error code 500 | Server Error: {"code":500,"message":"unable to get local issuer certificate","statusMessage":"Internal Server Error"}

Gurpreet

Hi @ivan.cherkasov I myself have been having a lot of issues with latest package and have asked for input from the developer on your issue. Meanwhile, can you please try using v1.1.2 and see if it is still not working for you.

ivan.cherkasov

Problem is with 1.1.2. Latest package was for illustration purposes, and has different error.

+ stack trace

  File "e:\bin3\Python36\lib\site-packages\eikon\data_grid.py", line 189, in get_data
    result = eikon.json_requests.send_json_request(_endpoint, payload, debug=debug)
  File "e:\bin3\Python36\lib\site-packages\eikon\json_requests.py", line 131, in send_json_request

eikon.eikonError.EikonError: Error code 500 | Server Error: {"code":500,"message":"unable to get local issuer certificate","statusMessage":"Internal Server Error"}

Again, this used to work for several years, until today.

ivan.cherkasov

So it seems not a SSL error in the eikon module itself when connecting localhost, but it gets a response from the proxy with this error message.

ivan.cherkasov

Also Excel addin is working.

Hi,

I see different points to check :

The message "Set App Key: None" => did you call ek.set_app_key() with a value different than None ? (did it work before ?)
the response {"code":500,"message":"unable to get local issuer certificate","statusMessage":"Internal Server Error"} is not expected from the proxy.
Do you have security settings in your domain/network that involve specific certificate ?

In addition, on our side, we detected an issue with Python 3.8 and we're investigating to find the root cause. (all HTTP requests take 100 times more latency and currently fail in TimeoutError)

So, in the meantime, you can switch to Python 3.7 (issue not reproduced with this version)

ivan.cherkasov

* "Set App Key: None" - that's odd, key is set using ek.set_app_key("..."), it is not empty and it was working before

* python and eikon version are the following:

Python 3.6.7 (v3.6.7:6ec5cf24b7, Oct 20 2018, 13:35:33) [MSC v.1900 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import eikon as ek
>>> ek.__version__
'1.1.2'
>>> ^Z

* "Do you have security settings in your domain/network that involve specific certificate" - that's for sure, IT is investigating; but so far issue is not pinpointed.

At the moment api proxy is working, so can't really run this code snippet.

However, there is smth. strange I noticed: if terminal is uninstalled and than installed back from the offline installer, proxy works. But after terminal cache is cleared ("Clear Cache" app) proxy immediately breaks with the "code":500 error.

ivan.cherkasov

I still experience this issue after software updates. The workaround is to reinstall the Eikon terminal.

Question from our IT: do you have a list of URLs/domains/addresses that should be excluded from the HTTPS inspection in order to run the Eikon proxy?
