Hi Kodiers,
I had a long time issue I couldn't figure out.
Random crashes on network access and no specific log entries.

I finally found the solution, I just had to do

Code:

pip install pyopenssl==0.16

I think this should be added to kodi requirements.
Could save a lot of time to other people.

What pyopenssl has to do with Kodi?

[tedr56]

For https requests with urllib2.

urllib2 is not part of the standard kodi installation / python stdlib

EDIT: oh right. it is from stdlib.. are we talking about some linux distribution fuck up here. I dont remember python stdlib ever required pyopenssl?

or did you mean urllib3?

I'm no expert in this area.

It may come from a distribution update. (LinuxMint17 -> 18)

And the addons I use are using urllib2.
