python3.8 gevent openai 报错 openai.APIConnectionError: Connection error.

现象

在python3.8.17版本中同时使用gevent和openai 1.53.0包时，openai包报错openai.APIConnectionError: Connection error.

报错信息：

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

版本信息

python 3.8.17
httpx 0.27.2
opena 1.53.0

原因

这是一个 ssl.wrap_socket 被 gevent monkey patch 后出现的兼容性问题，常见于 Python 3.8 + gevent + httpx（OpenAI SDK 1.x 默认使用 httpx）组合下。

解决方法

解决方案一：确保最早 monkey.patch_all()

在项目最开始（入口脚本的最上方）调用 gevent 的 monkey patch，如下：

from gevent import monkey
monkey.patch_all()

# 之后再导入 openai 等其他库
import openai

放错位置会导致 socket/ssl 没被正确 patch，出现你这种 ssl 报错。

解决方案二：升级python到3.9或更高
