I have installed Anaconda on my Desktop running Ubuntu 18 Mate LTS. The output of python --version is Python 3.6.5 :: Anaconda, Inc. First of all, when I try to launch Anaconda Navigator using anaconda-navigator the application gets stuck at Loading applications stage. I have to eventually kill this using CTRL+C/CTRL+Z. The anaconda navigator never launches. Following this, I tried conda update anaconda-navigator and conda update conda None of these commands work. I tried to look for the solution online and at one site, I was guided to use the following set of commands source ~/anaconda*/bin/activate root anaconda-navigator Even this did not work. It was showing some SSL Verification Failed message. The message was as follows: - CondaHTTPError: HTTP 000 CONNECTION FAILED for url <https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/main/noarch/repodata.json.bz2> Elapsed: - An HTTP error occurred when trying to retrieve this URL. HTTP errors are often intermittent, and a simple retry will get you on your way. If your current network has https://www.anaconda.com blocked, please file a support request with your network engineering team. SSLError(MaxRetryError('HTTPSConnectionPool(host='repo.anaconda.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /pkgs/main/noarch/repodata.json.bz2 (Caused by SSLError(SSLError("bad handshake: Error([('SSL routines', 'ssl3_get_server_certificate', 'certificate verify failed')],)",),))',),) Following this, I googled this problem and at one of the sites, the developers suggested me to use conda config --set ssl_verify False I did this. Then afterwards, I do not see the error message (obviously because ssl verify has been turned off). But then, instead of any error message, I keep on getting the following report at my terminal (no matter what conda command I use). The report looks something like this: - environment variables: CIO_TEST=<not set> CONDA_BACKUP_HOST=x86_64-conda_cos6-linux-gnu CONDA_DEFAULT_ENV=base CONDA_EXE=/home/upendra/anaconda3/bin/conda CONDA_PREFIX=/home/upendra/anaconda3 CONDA_PROMPT_MODIFIER=(base) CONDA_PYTHON_EXE=/home/upendra/anaconda3/bin/python CONDA_ROOT=/home/upendra/anaconda3 CONDA_SHLVL=1 PATH=/home/upendra/anaconda3/bin:/home/upendra/anaconda3/bin:/usr/local/sbi n:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/g ames:/snap/bin REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE=<not set> SSL_CERT_FILE=<not set> UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=<set> XDG_SEAT_PATH=/org/freedesktop/DisplayManager/Seat0 XDG_SESSION_PATH=/org/freedesktop/DisplayManager/Session0 ftp_proxy=<set> http_proxy=<set> https_proxy=<set> active environment : base active env location : /home/upendra/anaconda3 shell level : 1 user config file : /home/upendra/.condarc populated config files : /home/upendra/.condarc conda version : 4.5.9 conda-build version : 3.10.5 python version : 3.6.5.final.0 base environment : /home/upendra/anaconda3 (writable) channel URLs : https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/main/linux-64 https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/main/noarch https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/free/linux-64 https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/free/noarch https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/r/linux-64 https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/r/noarch https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/pro/linux-64 https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/pro/noarch package cache : /home/upendra/anaconda3/pkgs /home/upendra/.conda/pkgs envs directories : /home/upendra/anaconda3/envs /home/upendra/.conda/envs platform : linux-64 user-agent : conda/4.5.9 requests/2.18.4 CPython/3.6.5 Linux/4.15.0-30-generic ubuntu/18.04 glibc/2.27 UID:GID : 1000:1000 netrc file : None offline mode : False The interesting this is that the first time when I launched anaconda-navigator after installing it, navigator window did get launched. After that, I shut down my system after working and from then onward anaconda-navigator window would not launch. I am also not sure if this is due to internet connection or anaconda installation/configuration. Any suggestions ? Continue reading...
