I am quite new to python so please forgive what could be an easy fix. Based in Australia if that makes a difference.
From my research, getaddrinfo is an error that occurs when you try to make an API call but a connection cannot be made. There seem to be a few causes:
A) intermittent internet issues (I have none)
B) A proxy messing things up (which I do not use)
C) Hosts driver in system32 has a definition mismatch (nothing defined in there for me)
I have no idea why this issue is being cause but is there any chance someone could help me with a workaround for this?
Thanks
