"dot" not found in path.

I use jupyder notebook to run the tutorials:

from IPython import display
graph = net_drawer.GetPydotGraph(train_model.net.Proto().op, "mnist", rankdir="LR")
display.Image(graph.create_png(), width=800)

and I encounter this error:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I can run the codes in terminal and pycharm successfully, but fail in jupyder notebook. could you please help me? thanks! Besides,I have installed dot successfully such as:

sudo apt-get insall graphviz
pip install pydot

@lilichu are you still having this issue? Thanks.

@orionr sorry， I can't solve it

Are you using a virtualenv or conda environment? It seems like the site-packages being used by jupyter compared to on the command line / in terminal are different. You might want to take a look at something like https://stackoverflow.com/questions/33496350/execute-python-script-within-jupyter-notebook-using-a-specific-virtualenv but this is really an environment question. I'm going to close. Good luck!
