About PyPi

PyPI (Python Package Index), also known as Cheese Shop, is the official third-party software repository for Python. It is a package registry and software repository that has operated since 2003. Website: https://pypi.org
PyPI, the Python Package Index, is the official repository for third-party Python packages. Developers use it daily to install dependencies with pip, so any disruption here ripples quickly through build pipelines and CI jobs. This page tracks current availability and recent problems reported for the site, the API, and the installation path.
PyPI is the package list of Python modules. It hosts hundreds of thousands of projects and serves millions of downloads per hour. The Python Software Foundation operates it, and it has been running since 2003 under the nickname Cheese Shop. When problems appear, they usually involve the website loading slowly, uploads failing during package publishing, or timeouts when pip tries to fetch metadata. Search endpoints and the JSON API can degrade independently of downloads, so installs may work fine while the site itself is unreachable. On your side, first confirm the error is not local: check your internet connection, your proxy settings, and whether a corporate firewall blocks pypi.org. Retrying a failed pip install often clears transient errors. If uploads fail, verify your API token and account settings before assuming a platform incident.

Questions

Is PyPi down right now?

According to reports on this page, PyPi looks fine for most people. Isolated failures still happen — report yours if you are stuck.

When was the last mass outage?

We do not have a recorded mass outage for PyPi yet.

Why does pip install fail even when the PyPI website loads?

The download endpoints and the web frontend are served separately. Metadata or file delivery can be slow while the site appears normal. Check the status details here, then retry the install. Clearing pip's cache can also help in some cases.

Can I still install packages if PyPI is unreachable?

Only partially. Any package already in your local pip cache installs without network access. Mirrors and private indexes can cover some needs, but new versions from PyPI itself will not be available until service is restored.
