I installed python 3.9 on my computer. When I try to install jupyter notebook I got this error. SO how to solve this issue ?

Solution

  • In case, you are a mac user on Intel CPUs, just check your pip version, if you are installing through the command :

    pip install notebook

    Upgrade your PIP, the command that worked for me:

    /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip

    Check if its the latest version of PIP , by using command :

    pip --version

    After this again, try :

    pip install notebook

    This time you should not see any error.

    Then include ~/Library/Python/3.8/bin in your path variable. Check if its there by :

    echo $PATH

    And then launch the jupyter notebook by command :

    jupyter notebook
