Older Tornado version

How can I change my current Tornado 5.0.2 version to an older version (4.5.3)? Thank you

How about:

pip uninstall tornado && pip install tornado==4.5.3

Or if you’re using python version 3.x replace with:

pip3 uninstall tornado && pip3 install tornado==4.5.3

Answer ‘y’ when prompted to proceed, should uninstall whatever version you currently have installed and then install the specified version (4.5.3).

Thank you very much. When I tried both suggestions they came up with similar error messages:

Sorry for the bad info, the commands I provided worked on a plain raspberry pi I have stretch installed on (without raspbian for robots).

You can overcome the permission errors by running:

sudo pip uninstall tornado && sudo pip install tornado==4.5.3

Or if you’re using python version 3.x replace with:

sudo pip3 uninstall tornado && sudo pip3 install tornado==4.5.3

I tried these commands on my GoPiGo3 and they worked without errors (without sudo, I got the same errors you posted).

Thank you very much- it worked very well.
