nb_conda: conda tab doesn't work

I just recorded a screencast of this problem: http://screencast.com/t/jnBVQlce4

In short:

I created a conda env with:

conda create -n testaen -c anaconda-nb-extensions -c r -c wakari nb_conda nb_conda_kernels r-essentials

I entered that conda environment to run conda:
```
source activate testaen
jupyter notebook
```
I started Jupyter and then tried to go to the Conda tab. I get the error shown in the 2 minute video above. The full log from the start of Jupyter is below:

I ran into this issue myself (404s on /environments and /packages) on a fresh install. Here’s the output of jupyter serverextension list

config dir: /home/py/anaconda3/etc/jupyter
    nbpresent  enabled 
    - Validating...
      nbpresent  OK
    nb_conda  enabled 
    - Validating...
      nb_conda  OK
    nb_anacondacloud  enabled 
    - Validating...
      nb_anacondacloud  OK

I then ran the following commands:

jupyter serverextension disable nb_conda
jupyter serverextension enable nb_conda

Before running these commands, ~/.jupyter/jupyter_notebook_config.json did not exist. After these operations, it did exist, with the following contents:

{
  "NotebookApp": {
    "nbserver_extensions": {
      "nb_conda": true
    }
  }
}

This caused nb_conda to start working properly. When I move that file out of the way by renaming it, nb_conda starts failing again, even though the output of jupyter serverextension list is unchanged.
