[FIXED] Anaconda : IPython not running

Issue

I am a newbie to python and needed to set up IPython for some project-work. I followed the Anaconda Installation Directions . Currently I am having a lot of problem in running IPython :

• First I installed Anaconda in my home directory : \home\pranav
• Next I ran the command conda just to check if the installation was correct - it turned out to be prefectly fine
• When I type in ipython OR ipython notebook , I get the following error :

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/ipython", line 7, in <module> from IPython import start_ipython ImportError: No module named IPython

Can someone help me out ? Changing / Adding the PATH Variable is not working as suggested elsewhere on Stack Overflow

Solution

What was required was just a clean install of IPython :

• pip install ipython
• pip install 'ipython[all]'

Works like a charm :)
