I try to install distribute with python 3.3 on Ubuntu 12.04 to install pymongo.

I downloaded distribute_setup.py with

curl -O http://python-distribute.org/distribute_setup.py

Afterwards I tried 

python3 distribute_setup.py install

But I recive

Downloading http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/d/distribute/distribute-0.6.49.tar.gz
Traceback (most recent call last):

    raise URLError('unknown url type: %s' % type)
urllib.error.URLError: <urlopen error unknown url type: https>

Can someone please help me? It seems as if distribute uses code, that does not compile with python 3.3..

I installed Python 3.3.2 in my homefolder following these steps:

./configure
make
make test
sudo make install

If I try to install pymongo from source I recive:

Thank you

  • Seems like your Python installation does not have SSL support. – poke Sep 16 '13 at 17:04
  • I installed Python 3.3.2 from the Python homepage. Openssl is also installed. build-essential libncursesw5-dev libreadline5-dev libssl-dev libgdbm-dev libc6-dev libsqlite3-dev tk-dev and zlib1g-dev are also installed – Codehai Sep 16 '13 at 17:08

Are you sure you installed openssl-devel before compiling Python? I have had the same issue, however I fixed it by previously installing openssl-devel and then compiling Python 3 + distribute.
