FAQ

  1. ModuleNotFoundError: No module named x.
    Please ensure that you have the correct Kernel selected for the notebook you are using as listed above. You can change the kernel by clicking ‘Kernel’ on the toolbar at the top of the notebook.
  2. How do I get a fresh copy of a file?
    If you rename or delete a file it will be replaced when you next start your notebook server.3
  3. How do I restart my notebook server?
    You first click on the ‘Control Panel’ button in the top right of the screen or go to https://hub-route-serpentine-soler.2.rahtiapp.fi/. Next you click on the ‘Stop My Server’ button, and then the ‘Start My Server’ button. There may be a short delay depending on available resources. If the delay is too long you will land on the ‘Server not running’ screen, but there you simply click ‘Launch Server’.4
  4. Will my changes to the notebooks be preserved?
    We use nbgitpuller to provide the notebooks from GitHub. Our changes are merged into your copies each time you start a new notebook server but your changes are preserved in case of a conflict. See here for details.
