Thank you.. it's work.

Thank you.

From the output.txt, the proxy is running. The problem could be in the Python libraries.

GET: http://127.0.0.1:9000/sxs/v1 => Status Code: 200
GET: http://127.0.0.1:9000/ping => Status Code: 200
POST: http://127.0.0.1:9000/api/v1/data => Status Code: 200

I can replicate the issue with Python 3.8 (32 bit) and Eikon 1.1.6.

From my checking, it uses nest-asyncio 1.4.1. I found an issue in GitHub. Therefore, I downgraded it to 1.3.3.

pip3.8 install nest-asyncio==1.3.3

Then, it works fine.

You can try the following command as mentioned in this thread.

> python -c "import httpx; print(httpx.get('http://localhost:9060/api/status'))" 

And,

> set NO_PROXY=localhost:9000,localhost:9060> python -c "import httpx; print(httpx.get('http://localhost:9060/api/status'))"

Then, use the following code to list the versions of python libraries.

import pkg_resources
installed_packages = pkg_resources.working_set
installed_packages_list = sorted(["%s==%s" % (i.key, i.version)
   for i in installed_packages])
print(installed_packages_list)

Enable logging in asyncio and httpx with the following environment variables.

PYTHONASYNCIODEBUG=1
HTTPX_LOG_LEVEL=trace

Then set logging to a file.

import logging
logging.basicConfig(filename='example.log', level=logging.DEBUG)

Please share the package versions and log file. You need to remove the application key in the log file.

Hanwha-total1

attach file.

thank you

Can you test with 'eikon==1.1.6.post3'?

1.1.6.post3 should not have this error.

DEBUG:pyeikon:Error on checking port 9000 : AttributeError("'Request' object has no attribute 'prepare'")

Hi,

Your log.txt shows that you have 'httpx==0.16.1'

We identified that last versions (0.15 and 0.16) cause issues within connection to Eikon.
We're investigating this. In the meantime, we recommend to downgrade to 0.14.3 version (pip install httpx==0.14.3)

The root cause should be found (see below last response)
