Change startup url in Jupyter Notebook?

Question

When I open Jupyter Notebook from the shell, it starts at "/home/nichlas/.local/share/jupyter/runtime/nbserver-691-open.html" but I want it to start at " http://localhost:8888 ". I have honestly looked through all options in the config file and found nothing that worked - so how can I do this?

Answer 1

• You have to generate the config file first by running the following command in terminal:

jupyter notebook --generate-config

• Open this config file ( /home/yahya/.jupyter/jupyter_notebook_config.py on my system, for example).

• Find the parameter: c.Notebook.use_redirect_file) . It is commented by default, and set to True .

• Uncomment it and set it to False :

c.NotebookApp.use_redirect_file = False
