I have two machines that run on almost-identical content. One of them fails, out of nowhere, due to this error:

> ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement aiohappyeyeballs==2.6.1 (from versions: none)  
> 9.212 ERROR: No matching distribution found for aiohappyeyeballs==2.6.1

The other machine is connected onto the exact same requirements, and doesn’t fail.

Has anyone else encountered this issue since the last few days out of the blue ?

there is probably some difference in your dockerfile that is causing this, I’d take a look at that.

Both of my dockerfiles are identical. Do you know what else could cause this? It started out of nowhere I didn’t make any code changes.

hm, I’m not very familiar with python, but it might be a network issue pulling dependencies? I’d look at the rest of your build logs (you can use BUILDKIT\_PROGRESS=plain env var to a fly deploy to view the full log)

The same error keeps happening, for two deployments with exactly the same content, but I get this now:

> 12.82 ERROR: Could not install packages due to an OSError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host=‘[files.pythonhosted.org](http://files.pythonhosted.org)’, port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /packages/0f/15/5bf3b99495fb160b63f95972b81750f18f7f4e02ad051373b669d17d44f2/aiohappyeyeballs-2.6.1-py3-none-any.whl (Caused by ProtocolError(‘Connection aborted.’, ConnectionResetError(104, ‘Connection reset by peer’)))
