Issue with pip install -e ./bench-repo

Hi everyone.

I’m totally new to ERPNext, and Frappe.
I’m also new to ERP in general.

The company I work for is in need of an ERP solution. I did some research and found ERPNext.

I want to try the open-source software out, and I’m doing some research independently at home. This is where my issue lies…

I cannot seem to install the bench onto my macbook pro. This is the terminal message I get.

Johanns-MacBook-Pro-2:~ johannpiedras$ pip install -e ./bench-repo
Obtaining file:///Users/johannpiedras/bench-repo
Collecting Click (from bench==4.1.0)
  Could not fetch URL https://pypi.python.org/simple/click/: There was a problem confirming the ssl certificate: [SSL: TLSV1_ALERT_PROTOCOL_VERSION] tlsv1 alert protocol version (_ssl.c:661) - skipping
  Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement Click (from bench==4.1.0) (from versions: )
No matching distribution found for Click (from bench==4.1.0)

Does anyone know what is causing the problem, or how to solve it?

You can try ERPMext online for free.: https://erpnext.com/demo

If you want to try it on a local machine, the Virtualbox image is more easily installed. https://erpnext.org/download
