Solution 1:

You have to set proxies as you are inside firewall and installing files form outside firewall.

Ubuntu:

export http_proxy="http://<<username>>:<<password>>@<<proxyserver>>:<<proxy_port>>"
export https_proxy="https://<<username>>:<<password>>@<<proxyserver>>:<<proxy_port>>"

Windows:

set HTTP_PROXY=http://<<username>>:<<password>>@<<proxyserver>>:<<proxy_port>>
set HTTPS_PROXY=https://<<username>>:<<password>>@<<proxyserver>>:<<proxy_port>>

Solution 2:

I think you should first download get-pip.py and then run python get-pip.py.

If this doesn't work use python get-pip.py --prefix=/usr/local/.

Hope this helps.
