I am trying download a new AutoTrain Model using

> from transformers import AutoModelForSequenceClassification, AutoTokenizer

> model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from\_pretrained(“judy93536/autotrain- albert\_pretrain\_news\_tuned\_signews\_perigon-78609140979”, use\_auth\_token=True)

I am getting

> NameError: name ‘connection\_requires\_http\_tunnel’ is not defined

> OSError: Can’t load the configuration of ‘judy93536/autotrain-distilrobert\_pretrained\_news\_tuned\_signews\_perigon-78604140970’. If you were trying to load it from ‘[Models - Hugging Face](https://huggingface.co/models)’, make sure you don’t have a local directory with the same name. Otherwise, make sure ‘judy93536/autotrain-distilrobert\_pretrained\_news\_tuned\_signews\_perigon-78604140970’ is the correct path to a directory containing a config.json file

I have been using this interface, never had this problem, I am using  
transformers == 4.31.0.dev0

Could there be a problem with with the hub?

I wanted to provide an update. I restarted my system and everything is now working.

Thanks for your time!
