Jupyter Lab "404 : Not Found You are requesting a page that does not exist!"

Jupyter Notebook and Jupyter Lab worked well until I updated packages and set environments. After that, JupyterLab 3.0 doesn't open. It shows 404 and an error message:

[I 18:21:13.532 LabApp] JupyterLab extension loaded from

I changed the browser (Firefox instead of Chrome), followed the suggestions in another post (How to solve 404 error of jupyter lab), but neither worked. Also, I've tried to fix the problem by installing as administrator and as user.

I was wondering if there's a solution that not involves reinstalling all Anaconda distribution.

Someone else experienced a similar problem when they had conflicting jupyterlab_server and jupyterlab version installed (see issue 146 in jupyterlab_server repository), however your versions are fine. At a closer look the issue is with where they are installed:

The traceback includes paths to two locations:

  • C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python38\site-packages
  • C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages

It indicates that you may have multiple versions of these packages installed in different places (a newer version installed in the local Python directories via pip, and an older version in the Anaconda3 directory installed via conda). Because conda on your system has a higher priority, when JupyterLab (installed localy) tries to import its dependencies, it gets the old version of notebook and jupyterlab_server from conda directories, which cannot do what it wants.

Solution:

  1. pip uninstall jupyterlab
  2. conda install -c conda-forge jupyterlab

Context: There was an large infrastructure change in JupyterLab 3.0 meaning that it now uses jupyter_server and jupyterlab_server instead of notebook for all the backend work (interacting with kernels, filesystem, opening ports etc).
