Thanks for reporting this. How did you install GAP - from .exe installer, or using Unix subsystem in Windows 10?
I installed GAP using the Windows .exe installer. I'm having the same problem with GAP 4.9.3 on one Windows 10 machine and GAP 4.9.2 on a Windows 7 machine.
Sorry for not replying earlier @BNasmith. Did you manage to find some workaround in the meantime?
Unfortunately, the package is not yet usable on Windows if you install from .exe installer because that one does not provide usable ZeroMQInterface package. For now, on Windows I would suggest to try the Unix subsystem (if on Windows 10), or a Linux virtual machine, or Docker.
Hello again and thanks. I'm currently using GAP-4.10.0 linux version using the Windows Subsystem for Linux on Windows 10. I tried to follow the steps to install JupyterKernel (1.0 this time). I'm able to open the browser notebook, but the Kernel still fails to start property. I tried running autogen.sh
in the ZeroMQInterface package (I didn't see any instructions in the documentation about how to set it up). Not sure what to try next. Here's my kernel error code:

A small amount of progress: I realized I needed to add a link to jupyter-notebook-kernel
to /user/local/bin
. Now the kernel seems to be stuck in a loop on this problem:
GAP Jupyter Kernel Starting using gap

@BNasmith could you please check what happens if you start GAP in the terminal and call
LoadPackage("JupyterKernel");
Sure, here's what I get:

As https://www.gap-system.org/Releases/ says, after building GAP you also need to do
cd pkg ../bin/BuildPackages.sh
Please do that if you haven't tried yet. Also, you may need to call apt-get install libzmq3-dev
to be able to build the ZeroMQInterface package - do this before building packages, if you haven't done this yet.
At the end the BuildPackages.sh
script will also produce a file with the list of packages it failed to build. I will be interested in the content of that file. Then, try to call LoadPackage("JupyterKernel");
again and see if it loads or another package causes a problem.
Thanks again. I followed these steps and now LoadPackage("JupyterKernel");
return true
in GAP. Here's the log of failed to build packages:
Packages which failed to build are in ./log/fail.log

That said, it seems to be working now. I can type jupyter notebook
at the command prompt in the Windows Subsystem for Linux and create a notebook running GAP 4. Thanks very much. It seems that the problem was just me learning how to use the linux version of GAP properly!
Thanks, this is great! Also, a good list of packages which compiled successfully. I would be interested what happened with anupq - if you will need it and will need some help, you can submit an issue to https://github.com/gap-packages/anupq/. For curlInterface, use apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev
and then rebuild the package with ./configure; make
. NormalizInterface requires Normaliz to be installed, and XGAP requires the X Window system - don't know if this will work on Windows 10.
Good to learn that it works when Jupyter is started from the Windows command prompt! This will be certainly useful for https://github.com/gap-packages/JupyterKernel/issues/45. How did you install Python and Jupyter - did you get it from Anaconda, from Python website, or it is installed in Linux subsystem?
Actually, I don't have it working from the Windows command prompt. Rather, I am using the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), on which I installed GAP 4.10.0 for Linux. I also installed Jupyter Notebook on WSL and I think WSL recognized my prior Windows Python installation. So I'm running Jupyter Notebook from WSL and simply copy-pasting the link it provides to a browser (WSL won't open a browser automatically). Then things seem to work just fine.
After I ran into trouble with GAPDOC using Windows a while ago I decided to try and use GAP with Linux on WSL whenever possible. I'm just getting starting with it and so far I'm pretty happy with that approach. Thanks again,
Nice - thanks for clarifications! Also, you mentioned two Python installations above, with 3.6 and 2.7 - seems like the former is in Windows, the latter - in WSL.
Since it works, I will close this issue now - please open a new one, if there will be any questions!
Hello, I'm having trouble getting the GAP kernel for Jupyter to work. I have Python 3.6 installed on my Windows computer and GAP 4.9.3. I used the
pip install --user notebook
command in Bash to ensure that my Jupyter installation was up to date (I used it with Python 3 already) and I navigated to theC:\gap-4.9.3\pkg\JupyterKernel-0.999999
directory and ran thepython setup.py install --user
command.Now, when I open Jupyter notebook I am able to select a new "GAP 4" notebook, as expected. But when I do create it, I get a "Kernel Error", with the following message. I'm not quite sure what to do next to make this work. Any help would be appreciated.
