Notebook: Problem running notebook server after upgrade

Created on 5 Sep 2015  路  8Comments  路  Source: jupyter/notebook

I recently upgraded my jupyter installation. I now get an error message whenever I open a notebook. Any hint to what I should be looking for would be appreciated.

$ jupyter notebook

I ran
python2 -m ipykernel install --user

and it worked for me

can you try to do a ipython kernelspec install-self and retry ?possibly starting the notebook with --debug ?

Closing for inactivity.

I couldn't figure out what was going on and after trying for a few hours I simply reinstalled everything from scratch. For that reason I can't provide any more details. Sorry!

No problem, I'm just cleaning up a bit the issue list.
Happy this is working for you.

ipython kernelspec install-self helped for me, thanks :-)
