Jupyter kernel crashes because of a problem with pywin32 #215
Comments
@johann-petrak - thanks for moving this issue from Notebook. While catching up on the links within mhammond/pywin32#1507 it seems to me that we've come full-circle here and I'm sure @MSeal is shaking his head right now. I've come to the same conclusion as Matt wrt where this issue lies and it seems like it is related to Anaconda packaging of I really don't understand what it is Jupyter should do here aside from documenting this in Notebook's Troubleshooting section. Since this is way outside my wheelhouse (pun intended), I'd like to ask @bollwyvl for his two cents as I respect his knowledge on all things related to Python packaging (among other areas). |
My recommendations to new users trying to get, and maintain, a working jupyter environment:
If problems do arise:
Some background, somewhat on the blunt side: We, the Jupyter community, have no real insight into why Anaconda, Inc. makes decisions on their packaging. Those who aren't paying for Anaconda Enterprise, etc., are beta-testing their process and also don't have a lot of say in what happens.
We are, however, invested in maintaining the whole stack for the |
Thanks @bollwyvl! @johann-petrak - I think the best we can do about Closing. Should we find the need to address this issue differently in this repository, we can re-open it at that time. Thank you. |
OK so from previous comments in here and in the pywin32 issue it seems that ultimately this can only be dealt with by Anaconda, see issue conda-forge/pywin32-feedstock#18 |
Just installed the most recent Miniconda on a fresh Windows 10 system, created a Python 3.9 conda environment, installed a bunch of other packages and when I tried to run a Jupyter notebook, the Kernel crashed.
The problem was identical to what was reported here: jupyter/notebook#4980
This issue also describes a workaround that also worked for me, which is running:
However this is hardly a way to make things work for ordinary user, as they would first need to search for the problem, find some closed isse, figure out the exact file the they need to use and run the command to fix this.
See also mhammond/pywin32#1507
This explains that there may be a problem with how Jupyter bundles the win32api code which may be responsible for the problem
