nteract: Cell never seems to execute

Trying out 0.0.14, loaded two example notebooks, both Shift-Enter and clicking the “Play” icon does not seem to execute the cell, at least with my Jupyter-based expectation that the asterisk should change to a number, when the cell has been executed. The first cell with import pandas as pd, requests, json just stays with an asterisk.

Trying this on a 10.11.6 system, all updates.

That did it @dawood95! Thanks a million. Finally have all my kernels working perfectly in nteract! For reference, I followed the install instructions here for IRkernel, and in particular, used:

IRkernel::installspec(user = FALSE)

to install system-wide (same as installing without --user option when installing ipykernel).

Same issue for python kernel,

Available kernels: gophernotes /Users/clouds/Library/Jupyter/kernels/gophernotes ir /Users/clouds/Library/Jupyter/kernels/ir python3 /usr/local/share/jupyter/kernels/python3

when I try to run a cell it shows asterisk before the cell (indicating running) and no output, while status bar shows that “Python 3 | Idle”. I think the kernel should be successfully connected since it shows “Kernel Python 3 has been restarted” when I tried to restart kernel.

Any ideas?

FYI, I have my python3 kernel installed as pip3 install jupyter ipython, without --user for pip3 parameters.

It seems to have been solved in new versions, at least in my case.
