I have recently installed ipython using Enthought's EPD python install - and when starting the iPython HTML notebook from the command prompt by typing:
ipython notebook --pylab=inline
I manage to get the localhost browser notebook screen pop up correctly.
However when I try to create a new notebook by clicking "New Notebook" I get the following error message:
"Creating Notebook Failed The error was: Unexpected error while autosaving notebook: C:\Windows\System32\Untitled0.ipynb [Errno 17] No usable temporary file name found"
I am assuming this i sbecause I may not have write privilege for that particular drive. So I have tried to go into the "ipython_notebook_config.py" file and change the following:
# The directory to use for notebooks and kernels.
c.NotebookApp.notebook_dir = u'C:\Users\Stuart\Documents\iPython'
and
c.FileNotebookManager.notebook_dir = u'C:\Users\Stuart\Documents\iPython'
I have then closed down all the cmd windows and started the ipython notebook agaion. But when I click on "New Notebook" I get the same error message as before:
"Creating Notebook Failed The error was: Unexpected error while autosaving notebook: C:\Windows\System32\Untitled0.ipynb [Errno 17] No usable temporary file name found"
Could someone please help me as to how I can get this working? Any help very much appreciated.
The answer kindly provided by @Jakob in the comments above did the trick:
"Can you try switching to C:\Users\Stuart\Documents\iPython in the terminal before starting the notebook?"
