OpenML ConnectionRefused

[ayushi-3536]

Downloading openml dataset throws connection refused error after max retries expire.
The problem is solved when openml version is updated to the latest one.

Are you working on a cluster or behind a proxy? I had the same issue and fixed it here in the openml-python pacakge.

openml/openml-python#1184

That's a good question.

@ayushi-3536 could you please give some more details of the setup you're using to test this?
Also, a minimal example if possible.

It would also help to know if you're using HPOBench with or without containers.

I was working behind the proxy but I face the same issue while running on the cluster node too, both the times without the container. I was simply executing one of the test files: https://github.com/automl/HPOBench/blob/master/tests/test_svm.py
