<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I need to install the development version of yt, which is fully
capable of reading BoxLib-based datasets (yt-users Digest, Vol
110, Issue 1).<br>
</p>
<p>While I can do that without problems on my PC, I ran into
problems on the remote host where the datasets are produced.<br>
</p>
I am able to successfully install Anaconda and also the stable yt
branch (via conda install yt), but the "nightly conda build"<br>
<br>
<span class="nv"></span><tt>conda install -c
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://use.yt/with_conda/">http://use.yt/with_conda/</a> yt</tt><tt><br>
</tt><br>
fails with the error message<br>
<br>
<tt>Fetching package metadata ...</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>CondaHTTPError: HTTP None None for url
<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="http://use.yt/with_conda/linux-64/repodata.json"><http://use.yt/with_conda/linux-64/repodata.json></a></tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>Elapsed: None</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>An HTTP error occurred when trying to retrieve this URL.</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>HTTP errors are often intermittent, and a simple retry will
get you on your way.</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>ConnectionError(MaxRetryError("HTTPConnectionPool(host='use.yt',
port=80): Max retries exceeded with url:
/with_conda/linux-64/repodata.json (Caused by
NewConnectionError('<requests.packages.urllib3.connection.HTTPConnection
object at 0x2aaab449ad30>: Failed to establish a new
connection: [Errno 113] No route to host',))",),)</tt><tt><br>
</tt><br>
It turns out that retrying doesn't help. I suspect that traffic
through certain ports is blocked.<br>
<br>
Over the alternative route offered by the yt installation script,
even the basic installation fails because some packages cannot be
accessed.<br>
<br>
If anyone knows of other options or a way to circumvent the above
problem, please let me know.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
