Abort trap in IPython Notebook after installing matplotlib #2940
Comments
Do your configuration files enable pylab mode by default? That's the only way I can think that matplotlib would be involved. |
I don't believe there are any startup files conditioning IPython. A find of my .ipython directory would seem to affirm that. /Users/sholden/.ipython/profile_default/startup To give you more idea what's in my environment I added all possible dependencies I could easily, including matplotlib, ran the notebook server and saw it crash. Uninstalling matplotlib reliably brings it back to life. (py32)AirHead:~ sholden$ pip freeze IPython tests pass with a few skips and known errors. Scratching my head. The error message clearly isn't anticipating much need to debug, so I'm not sure what else I can do. |
A complete mystery to me, I'm afraid. Someone familiar with OS X might have some more ideas, but it's really bizarre. |
Well, at least it's nothing obvious! Thanks for your input. Any assistance welcomed. |
the odds are it's a weird PATH issue, maybe with conflicting libraries (freetype or libpng or libjpeg), sometimes you can end up with one being found at compile time, and a different (incompatible) version being found at runtime. Have you ever installed any of these libraries, either with homebrew or fink/macports? If so, what is your DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH? |
also, just to confirm that this actually has nothing to do with IPython in particular, I would expect |

Without time to investigate further, and given that the same setup is giving no trouble for other users, I think this issue should be closed as "cannot reproduce" and we can leave it at that. Very grateful for the attention - next time an issue like this comes up I'll perhaps try the lists first. SH |
I'm having the same problem. Installed matplotlib and now get an "abort trap 6" when I try to run ipython notebook. When I try
I also get "abort trap 6" |
I was running in to this problem when I had a custom-built netpbm in my |
Python 3.2.2, MacOS 10.6.8, iPython 0.131.
Everything was running fine with numpy and scipy installed. I pip installed matplotlib and now when I attempt to start the notebook server with "ipython3 notebook" I get the output
abort trap
after a pause of maybe three seconds. The ipython3 command runs normally in interactive mode, and allows the import of the matplotlib module. The message doesn't give very much to go on.
