I am trying to use the Jupyter notebook from a remote server using the server's IP address and have followed the suggestions from this SO question:
Why I can't access remote Jupyter Notebook server?
The following command has worked in all the server instances but I am facing issue with one particular instance:
jupyter notebook --ip xx.xx.xx.xx --port 8889 --allow-root
In this particular server instance, this throws the following error:
File "/root/anaconda3/bin/jupyter-notebook", line 11, in <module>
sys.exit(main())
File "/root/anaconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/jupyter_core/application.py", line 270, in launch_instance
return super(JupyterApp, cls).launch_instance(argv=argv, **kwargs)
File "/root/anaconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/traitlets/config/application.py", line 663, in launch_instance
app.initialize(argv)
File "<decorator-gen-7>", line 2, in initialize
File "/root/anaconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/traitlets/config/application.py", line 87, in catch_config_error

File "/root/anaconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/notebook/notebookapp.py", line 1769, in initialize
self.init_webapp()
File "/root/anaconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/notebook/notebookapp.py", line 1490, in init_webapp
self.http_server.listen(port, self.ip)
File "/root/anaconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/tornado/tcpserver.py", line 151, in listen
sockets = bind_sockets(port, address=address)
File "/root/anaconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/tornado/netutil.py", line 174, in bind_sockets
sock.bind(sockaddr)
OSError: [Errno 99] Cannot assign requested address
The issue seems to be with the use of IP address and not the port despite the following settings on jupyter_notebook_config.py
c.NotebookApp.ip = '0.0.0.0'
c.NotebookApp.allow_origin = '*'
c.NotebookApp.allow_remote_access = True
I have looked at solutions on SO and Github and most of them are for localhost and not specific IP addresses.
Can someone point to what could be the issue? Thank you.
