try reinstalling pip install cryptography


reinstall three steps:

1, reinstall sub-module
2, reinstall module
3, reinstall Python

four steps to update (don't try to update Python2 to Python3)

1, update sub-module
2, update module
3, update pip
4, update Python

= =

first of all, unless the Python environment is broken, runpy.py will not make mistakes,
and then unless the module is broken, scrapy can work normally.
but through the "three steps" and "four steps" show that this situation can not happen.
basically, it is the problem that the sub-module is not installed (not updated, not fully installed).

= =

scrapy's execution file (executable file) may not run on your version of Windows.
may also be a firewall problem. (do not allow scrapy's server to pass)
take the liberty of asking, I often have problems with the Python3,OpenSSL module. Have you mentioned OpenSSL in your error code? is it possible that the dependent library is not installed?

= =

Python2 is still unknown to me. I hope the landlord will adopt it and have some new ideas:
can you use IDLE to write Scrapy programs?
if you can, use IDLE to make it up.
if not, there are a lot of better people on the Internet than me, and they may have a solution.
can you use other modules that are based on Scrapy or have the same dependent libraries as Scrapy?
if not, try completely to reinstall the module, including submodules.
