Installing parallel-ssh on python2.7

Question

I am trying to install parallel-ssh on python2.7. My use-case for using this is to make an ssh connection run in parallel and not let it block further execution of a python file. I used the following command,

pip install parallel-ssh

But, I am getting the following error,

UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 30: ordinal not in range(128)

I tried searching for ways to rectify this. I am not very clear on what to do and need some guidance regarding the same.

this is the error while installing parallel-ssh or while using it? — piyushj

I don't think the issue is with the parallel-ssh package. Seems to be a duplicate - stackoverflow.com/questions/25036897/…. Can you please check? — gaganso

Yes, this is an issue with old versions of pip.

pip install -U pip
pip install parallel-ssh

This will update pip and then parallel-ssh installation can proceed.
