Eventlet monkeypatch conflict

Eventlet monkeypatch conflict

$ python -c "import eventlet; eventlet.monkey_patch(); import requests; requests.get('https://example.com')"
Traceback (most recent call last):
  ...
requests.exceptions.ConnectionError: Green socket/ssl incompatibility

Why this happens

Monkeypatching replaces standard sockets/SSL with green versions that may not fully support urllib3 expectations.

Fix

• Use compatible versions or avoid monkeypatching; try requests in threads.

Wrong code

import eventlet
eventlet.monkey_patch()
import requests
requests.get("https://example.com")

Fixed code

import requests
# Avoid global monkeypatch; use standard blocking I/O
resp = requests.get("https://example.com")
print(resp.status_code)
