Hi folks,

Out jupyter instance stopped connecting. It now keeps timing out, and cannot find the port.

This is my output.log:

```auto

```

Nothing has changed. It was working perfectly 2 hours ago. What could be going on here? 😟

Issue is only affecting Jupyter. I can get RStudio, Shell, and Desktop to spawn.

Thanks!

It’s not clear to me what could be happening given Jupyter doesn’t even log anything. It should be printing something to `stdout` right after you issue the command, but I see nothing there.

I would get a desktop and try to replicate the issue interactively (or ssh to the compute node while the Jupyter job is active). You can use the command `jupyter notebook --config=/home/wabuala/ondemand/data/sys/dashboard/batch_connect/sys/jupyter/output/51c67153-5f46-49d9-902c-3d061bc32af1/config.py` directly or try to run the shell scripts in that same directory as `config.py`.

Hi @jeff.ohrstrom ,

I just tested in an HPC Desktop, I attached the logs as screenshots below.

When I visit the link, I am getting this:

```auto
Failed to connect to noderome254:10570

```

Logs:

You probably need to use `localhost` instead of the node name. I see some errors in the output, but I’d ask how long it took for it to start printing that stuff out.

I suspect something has changed. I’d advise you to think/ask your colleagues if anything has. Also note that Jupyter because it’s Python, may recognize the python packages you have installed in your own HOME under `~/.local/lib/<python version>`.

@jeff.ohrstrom

I prematurely posted this. There was an issue on the storage side, slowing down the execution of the script. I increased the timeout and it’s working. Apologies for that, and thanks for your support! 😄
