change the ownership of the    local share jupyter directory from root to user   sudo chown -R user user    local share jupyter    see here  https   github com ipython ipython issues 8997  The first user before the colon is your username  the second user after the colon is your group  If you get chown   user   illegal group name  find your group with groups  or specify no group with sudo chown user     local share jupyter    EDIT  Added -R option in comments to the answer  You have to change ownership of all files inside this directory  or inside    jupyter   wherever it gives you PermissionError  to your user to make it work

You don t have to install or uninstall anything  if you are using python 2 use pip to install and upgrade  But if you want to use python3 then follow the steps below   sudo apt-get install python3-pip python3-dev   then in terminal use this  pip3 install -U jupyter   final step is to launch jupyter notebook so in terminal just type  jupyter notebook   all the issues or problems of premissions etc will be resolved

Based on my experience on Ubuntu 18 04   1  Check Jupyter installation  first of all make sure that you have installed and or upgraded Jupyter-notebook  also for virtual-environment    pip install --upgrade jupyter    2  Change the Access Permissions  Use with Caution    then try to change the access permission for you   sudo chmod -R 777    local   where 777 is a three-digit representation of the access permission  In sense that each of the digits representing short format of the binary one  e g  7 for 111    So  777 means that we set permission access to read  write and execute to 1 for all users  Owner  Group or Other   Example 1   777   111 111 111  or  777   rwx-rwx-rwx  Example 2   755   111 101 101   Owner  rwx 4 2 1 7  Group  r-x 4 0 1 5  Other  r-x 4 0 1 5    More about chmod   File Permissions and attributes   3  Run jupyter  afterwards run your jupyter notebook   jupyter-notebook   Note   These steps also solve your Visual-Studio code  VS-Code  problems regarding permissions while using ipython and jupyter for python-interactive-console

The top answer here didn t quite fix the problem  although it s probably a necessary step   sudo chown -R user user    local share jupyter     user should be whoever is the logged in user running the notebook server  This changes the folder owner to the user running the server  giving it full access   After doing this  the error message said it didn t have permission to create the checkpoint file in    ipynb checkpoints  so I also changed ownership of that folder  which was previously root   sudo chown -R user user    ipynb checkpoints    And then I was able to create and save a notebook

List item List item   this problem of not able to open jupyter notebook is like Corona virus I came across several complaints-including my own I use windows 10   Atlast after struggling for 3 days i came across this wonderful foolproof solution -  1 The jupyter folder is created at path -    C  Users deviv 000 AppData Roaming jupyter    your name will replace- deviv 000  2 Go to cmd and write    cd  C  Users deviv 000 AppData Roaming jupyter   this will take cmd to that folder   3 Now create manually a file as untitled ipynb in jupyter folder   4 Come back to cmd and write    jupyter trust untitled ipynb  5 After cmd performs this operation now write - jupyter notebook  SUCCESS  - your notebook will appear in the next tab I used chrome    Regards
