when query i get Failed to establish network connection error about howdoi HOT 6 CLOSED

• Are you using the release from pip or the latest from github?
• Are you using howdoi behind a proxy?
• Does it work when you try using the app from a different network?

from howdoi.

i upgraded from pip
im not behind a proxy
i have not try to use it from different network

i will try to install it from github

from howdoi.

Let me know if the github version works better. You may also want to try from a different network as Google will sometimes block your queries if it detects automation.

i did howdoi sudo pip uninstall howdoi > Successfully uninstalled howdoi

then i cloned howdoi from github and installed sudo python setup.py install i get the same error message when i try to query

im using ubuntu 13.04 my python version is Python 2.7.4

i tried with other machine in the same network i get answer when query, any idea?

from howdoi.

It might help to trace through the code in howdoi.py and see where the program is failing.

What if you open a Python shell and try:

$ python
>>> import requests
>>> requests.get('http://google.com')

You should get <Response [200]>

thanks for your time @gleitz
i tried the code you shared and i get <Response [200]> response
