Python 2.7 Import Dropbox SDK Error

After installing the 'dropbox SDK' on my RaspberryPi pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo pip install dropbox Downloading/unpacking dropbox Downloading dropbox-7.3.1-py2-none-any.whl (416kB): 4

Solution 1:

You are having an issue in the requests module that is installed. First upgrade pip and then try to reinstall requests.

sudo apt-get install --only-upgrade python-pip
sudo pip uninstall requests
sudo pip install requests

Solution 2:

Not sure if it's too late (it might help someone else), but I've experienced the same problem with dropbox and was able to resolve it with:

pip install urllib3 --upgrade

or specifically in my case (diff script version):

pip2.7 install urllib3 --upgrade
