Answer 1

Just had the same problem and resolved it with the following command:

jupyter notebook --generate-config

More infos are here: http://jupyter-notebook.readthedocs.io/en/stable/config.html

It prompted me to replace my current config with the default config. Thus, if you're fine getting rid of your current config, this is an easy option.

I solved this issue by:

opening cmd as admin

type in :

jupyter notebook --config=/home/john/mystuff/jupyter_notebook_config.json

Note that: before running above script make sure , Anaconda and Jupyter Lab must be uninstalled

• Delete all files in C:/ drive
• Then install re-install the latest Python3 , and add/set the Environment path correctly , and isuggested make Pyhon in the main root folder of as C:/Python not c:/User/.../Python , however u need to install Jupyter notebook usin : pip install Jupyter notebook **sometimes u need to install get-pip.py in order to use pip
• There is sometimes that the jupyter_notebook_config.py is missing To create a jupyter_notebook_config.py file, after installing the python ,
• you can use the following command line:

jupyter notebook --generate-config

Jupyter keeps configuration info in the jupyter_notebook_config.py file. You can find it in C:\Users\<user>\.jupyter on Windows or ~\.jupyter on linux. Modify the c.NotebookApp.notebook_dir entry to the location where you keep your notebooks. You can also use the command line to set it:

jupyter-notebook --notebook-dir=<path>

Enclose the <path> in double quotes on Windows if there is a space in the path name.

If you had iPython installed before upgrading to jupyter, then the jupyter migration process used the settings from your old iPython config file. Maybe it's been a long time since you modified iPython and that is why you are seeing unexpected startup or running behavior from jupyter.

Also, this jupyter command may help troubleshoot directory/path problems:

jupyter --paths
