Ipython notebook will not start on command line

Question

I tried to open ipython in terminal with ipython notebook and it will not open ipython notebook. It gives the following error:

| ~/documents/ud         


        

Answer 1

I used the same approach as Kiem Nguyen above, but 'chrome' wouldn't work for me, even after editing my .bash_profile as Hanshenry90 suggested.

To use Safari to view the notebook, open your terminal and enter:

jupyter notebook --generate-config
cd ~.jupyter
nano jupyter_notebook_config.py

ctrl + w "NotebookApp.browser" + enter to skip to that part of the file. Then delete # and change the line to:

c.NotebookApp.browser = u'Safari'

Restart your notebook, with jupyter notebook, and it should open in Safari.

If anyone has any insight on how to make this work for Chrome, that would be much appreciated.
