Jupyter notebooks with rstudio-server open source - r

Is it possible to use Jupyter notebooks with the open source version of rstudio-server? I was unable to find any documentation regarding this except for this link which talks about rstudio-server pro.
https://docs.rstudio.com/ide/server-pro/1.2.5001-3/jupyter-sessions.html
Please point me to a link if anybody has already implemented this.
Thanks in advance.

It is not possible to use Jupyter Notebooks in the Open Source version of RStudio Server. This is a feature that requires RStudio Launcher and it and requires RStudio Server Pro.
It's possible to try RStudio Server Pro for 45 days, with no strings attached.
You can just follow the docs to start your trial:
https://docs.rstudio.com/rsp/installation/
https://docs.rstudio.com/rsp/integration/jupyter-standalone/
If you are looking for other OSS options you can take a look at JupyterHub and how it supports RStudio IDE inside their architecture.
(Disclaimer I work for RStudio)

I don't believe Jupyter has current implementation for running inside of R Studio Community.

WebIO is not being detected by Jupyter Notebook

I am trying to open a Jupyter Notebook file in classic Jupyter Notebook interface. I am attempting to create an interective app that uses Julia programming language in interactive codes. For that I am trying to use the Interact library, because I know it features things such as buttons, sliders, etc. It requires the WebIo extension to be installed. However, from what I have experienced so far, Jupyter notebook does not detect the WebIO extension.
I tried following the instructions at https://juliagizmos.github.io/WebIO.jl/stable/gettingstarted/ and at https://juliagizmos.github.io/WebIO.jl/stable/troubleshooting/not-detected/. In the last link I found that another extension needed to be install and I found more information in this link (https://juliagizmos.github.io/WebIO.jl/latest/providers/ijulia/). I tried executing this command in my Windows prompt and it had apperently been succesful. When executing the command suggested at the second link, I got an error in the Julia REPL saying that WebIO extension for Jupyter Lab must be installed through Python or Conda, which I had already done.
I am also a bit confused as to how I can check to see if the extension is enabled.
I believe the problem has to do either with the installation of IJulia or the pip installation of WebIO. I rarely use pip, so I don't know if I did it correctly.
Thank you.

Jupyter-notebook fails to start | PyForMLS

I am currently setting up a Python data-science client for SQL Server Machine Learning Services following this guide: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/machine-learning/python/setup-python-client-tools-sql?view=sql-server-ver15
Unfortunately, running Jupyter notebooks for this distribution does not seem to work for me: Typing .\Scripts\jupyter-notebook in the distribution folder, or directly running jupyter-notebook.exe from the Scripts sub-folder does not start Jupyter. In the terminal, the command exits with no ouput.
Afterwards, https://localhost:8889/tree is not reachable as should be the case according to the tutorial above.
Any suggestions? (I already checked https://jupyter-notebook.readthedocs.io/en/stable/troubleshooting.html for solutions). Thank you!
Update: At least .\Scripts\jupyter-console is running, though it is not the same experience.
some cases .\Scripts\jupyter-notebook will not work fine because of the installation issues. As anaconda is having both commercial and enterprise editions, issues will raise.
Instead use the following procedure for cool opening of Jupyter-Notebook in anaconda distribution
Click on Start menu
Type Jupyter
Click on jupter icon which is visible in search results
Jupyter CMD will start running and make it minimized instead closing it. It will open the UI of jupyter notebook in browser.
Jupyter notebook for SQL
Check the documentation link which is available in link which is the configuration of jupyter notebook for SQL.

Launch rstudio-server from terminal linux

I'm an Ubuntu user and I used to work with the standard version of Rstudio on my computer. After reading about the server version I installed it on my PC and I'm working with it now. Although I'm very happy with rstudio-server version, I have been facing some difficulties to keep with some old practices. Particularly, I use to launch, open and create new files from the terminal using rstudio keyword - I'm specially fond to the possibility of open files in current rstudio session through the terminal window within rstudio. However, I cannot figure out which command is equivalent in rstudio-server.
I tried, without success, the following commands:
rstudio-server
and
r-server
Interestingly, when I type which rstudio (to find the path of the program's binary files), the terminal did not return any results. The program is installed and working normally, but I just can't find it on my PC
Any help will be appreciated

RStudio empty on startup - No windows, no menus, no rendering

When I start RStudio, none of the windows inside the main frame come up, and none of the menu options display menu options when clicked. It's just an blank page.
It feels like some kind of graphics rendering or window management problem.
I'm running Windows 7. I have the latest version of R, which is 3.1.1. I have the latest RStudio, which is 98.1062.
How to fix it?
Reset the RStudio state. Do this:
Close RStudio if open.
Go to this directory: %localappdata%\RStudio-Desktop
Rename that directory as a type of backup.
Start RStudio.
RStudio will see the configuration directory is missing and regenerate it with correct values.
Everything should work after that.
Other threads I found helpful here are:
https://support.rstudio.com/hc/en-us/articles/200534577-Resetting-RStudio-s-State
https://support.rstudio.com/hc/communities/public/questions/200666647-RStudio-096-16-Windows-7-gives-empty-screen?locale=en-us
Thanks!
Renaming the RStudio state by renaming %localappdata%\RStudio-Desktop did not work for me. However i made it work by renaming another config folder in %appdata% instead.
Close RStudio
Go to this directory: %appdata%\RStudio
Rename the folder
Restart RStudio
I faced the same issue when I downgraded my version of R.
I did try the above solutions. However, it didn't work for me.
After some googling, I found out that the issue was because now I had a different version of R installed. Here's how you can choose the version of R and rectify the issue.
Navigate to the RStudio installation folder. (C:\Program Files\RStudio\bin)
Press and hold Control Key
Double click on rstudio.exe
Choose a specific version of R (whichever you want to work with)
Click OK and RStudio should open without any issues.
NB: I use 64bit Windows 8.1.
I had the same issue and I almost gave up about solving it but then I found a suggestion that GitHub might be the problem. I am not sure how that is happening but the minute I uninstalled GitHub and re-launched Rstudio, it worked perfectly as nothing happened!? Here is the link for where I found the suggestion on Rstudio community page: (https://support.rstudio.com/hc/communities/public/questions/200983187-R-studio-0-98-797-for-mac-opens-as-blank-white-page)
I had the same problem and figured out that for some reason R was blocked on the step of loading my library from a website (I added it to Rprofile for auto-load). You can test the following:
1) Try to run just R console, not RStudio, and then click on blank space - normally some information should appear
2) Try to launch without network connection
On a Mac (Running Yosemite 10.10.3) this is what worked for me:
Move/Rename ~/.rstudio-desktop
(Many responses have mentioned this, but this by itself didn't help.)
Then I shutdown my Mac and restarted it. RStudio worked when I logged back in.
Before that, I tried every one of the steps mentioned here and in many other links, including re-downloading R and RStudio, but unfortunately none of those steps helped in my case.
Search this documentation for 'Blank GUI'.
This is what I found which worked for me:
In Windows Explorer, go to C:\Users\currentUser\AppData\Roaming\RStudio.
Delete the Desktop.ini file
This technique forces RStudio to refresh and default to open-source R as the engine
Same issue I faced so I unistalled the windows installer and downloaded zip version from this link https://www.rstudio.com/products/rstudio/download/
Unziped It and pasted it into c drive and created shortcut from Rstudio/bin/rstudio.exe file.
Working properly after that no issue. In windows installer checked that r session is not working due to an missing dll.
So try to install from ZIP
I had the same problem like Thomas
When I start RStudio, none on the windows inside the main frame come up, and none of the menu options display menu options when clicked. It's just an blank page.
My problem was, that i uninstalled R because is thought RStudio will work on its own.
So i uninstalled RStudio and deleting every existing file which was created by R or RStudio.
In the next step i installed RStudio again.
It was asking for a Version of R (which i dont had in this state). So i installed R again and everything is working fine now. I hope this helps
I had a slight variation of the problem that might be of interest. I had set up an aliases.cmd to run my cygwin bash shell automatically upon launch of a cmd terminal as per:
https://superuser.com/questions/302194/automatically-executing-commands-when-a-command-prompt-is-opened
What RStudio was doing was launching a few cmd windows in the background to (I assume) populate each pane and the console.
This was triggering a bash shell which wasn't returning and was hanging RStudio.
If you have this issue you can just manually kill the sub bash terminals spawned by cmd via ProcessExplorer/TaskManager and RStudio will continue to launch normally.
If anyone else has set anything to launch automatically on init of a cmd terminal then this could interfere in the same way with RStudio.
The RStudio devs could probably fix this behind the scenes by changing the way they spawn cmd terminals in the gui.
I had a similar problem. After trying the options above with no luck, I uninstalled Rx64 3.5.0 and installed an older version, R x64 3.2.2.
Rstudio then worked perfect.

Using StatET with Eclipse in Win64: "no session of R is active in the current workbench window"

What do I do when I get the following error message in Eclipse when trying to launch R?
"no session of R is active in the current workbench window"
I've made a tutorial for installing StatET on my Win64 system, you can find it here (mirror). Although it's no rocket science it's easy to get into issues along the way.
You need to first configure R for your system and then you also need to go into Run > Run Configurations... and add a R Console before you can run it.
You also need to be careful about the Java version that you use. I had to uninstall all my Java, then reinstall the 64-bit before it worked. I guess I could've used the 32-bit, but since I use 64-bit R I thought that it might be a better option (although I think the Eclipse environment and R don't really care about sharing bits)
for me had to select rterm, that displayed the r console/terminal. Then do run , run as -> run in R as script via source
I had the sampe problem.
go to Run > Run Configurations > RStudio
and klick on "Run"
