Request fails in python subprocess

Summary

The request library stalls in a python subprocess and does not fulfill the request.

Expected Result

The line “after call” should be printed and the response to the GET request should also be printed.

Actual Result

The subprocess stalls at “before call” and does not print “after call” and the response to the GET request.

Reproduction Steps

import requests
from multiprocessing import Process

def call_locahost():
    print("before call")
    response = requests.request("GET", "https://www.google.com/")
    print("after call")
    print(response)
    return response

p = Process(target=call_locahost)
p.start()
p.join()

I’m on MacOS too. I don’t see this across any macOS environment or Linux environment. I’d check your DNS settings and find evidence that this is actually a problem with this project - of which there is currently none

Got it, thanks for the insight.
