I have absolutely no idea.  That error means that when sage tries to
run another copy of sage, it fails at startup.    I've never once not
seen the same behavior when I tried to start SAGE from the command
line.   Ideas:

(1) Try "!sage" from the "sage: " command prompt.  Does it work fine?

(2) Just do "notebook()" so it listents on localhost.

(3) From the SAGE command line, try
      sage: s = Sage()
      sage: s('2+2')
     This creates an interface to SAGE from SAGE (just like the interfaces
     from SAGE to mathematica, singular, etc.)  This is a key part of how
     the notebook is implemented.
