Thanks for the video. For some reason, it doesn't think you have Jupyter installed, even though you just installed it.

Could you please post the logs? Find it at Help > Open log folder > dsx-desktop.log.

Also please post the output of:

ls ~/.config/ibm-dsx-desktop/user-home/_global_/re/ibm/definitions/

my pleasure and thanks for looking at this.

I found this entry

[2018-05-24 00:08:52:0985] [error] Error writing definition file: Error: EACCES:
permission denied, open '/home/bhan/.config/ibm-dsx-desktop/user-home/_global_/re/
ibm/definitions/jupyter-server.json'

which indicates that we couldn't create the jupyter file, which we use to check if you have jupyter installed.

I also noticed that in your command, you had a global directory instead of _global_ (you must've noticed it too since you italicized it). I believe the error may be due to this mismatch in directory names.

Try renaming global to _global_ and installing jupyter again. Also make sure the path

~/.config/ibm-dsx-desktop/user-home/_global_/re/ibm/definitions/

exists. If it doesn't, create it using

mkdir -p ~/.config/ibm-dsx-desktop/user-home/_global_/re/ibm/definitions/

@blogmaniak just following up, is this still an issue?
