Python Package Index says it is up, but I am having issues. What could be wrong?

The official page may not yet reflect a new incident, the problem may affect only a small group of accounts or one region, or it may be local to your device, network, software or ISP. Check the affected components and community reports above, test another connection or device, and contact Python Package Index support if the problem continues.

How can I check whether Python Package Index is having issues?

Compare the normalized status and recent incidents on this page with the official provider source. Uptimus keeps official component changes, maintenance, community reports and recent incident details together so you can distinguish a broad outage from a local problem.

How to get notified about Python Package Index outages?

Add Python Package Index to your Uptimus workspace, then choose the event types and delivery channels you want to use. Depending on your plan and configuration, alerts can be sent by email, push, webhook or configured integrations for major outages, smaller issues, maintenance and recovery. If Python Package Index exposes components, you can monitor all of them or restrict official alerts to the products your team uses.

PyPI Database Upgrade
Resolved
While successful and without error, this database maintenance took a little over 200% of the time we expected and communicated. In analyzing the performance of the dump/restore process necessary for upgrading major versions of our database, we noted that one table in particular \(our largest\) took nearly four times longer than in initial testing of the procedure while all other tables performed as observed in tests. We identified two differences between our trial runs and the actual final migration: - PyPI’s codebase being in read-only mode - Upgrades to the database client utilities We have nothing to indicate that changing our codebase to stop database writes would have impacted performance, and are reasonably confident that using different versions of the dump/restore utilities may have impacted our estimates. We will consider other methods for this kind of maintenance in the future and apologize for the extended duration of this maintenance. After our previous major database upgrade in December 2021, we are satisfied with the minimized impact on installers in this maintenance window but have a goal of reducing the duration that PyPI needs to be in read-only in the future.
