Hi,

Sorry for not being able to help you, but I hadn't seen this error before. You should know that using pip to install Spyder is really for experts or people who have a very good knowledge of the Python scientific stack. So our recommendation is for you to use Anaconda instead.


Cheers,
Carlos

When starting spyder, I can never get the IPython console to connect to a kernel initially, I always get the same error message:

An error ocurred while starting the kernel
Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: can't initialize sys standard streams
OSError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor

I've ensured that spyder is up to date by running
|
sudo pip install -U spyder
|

Trying to restart the kernel does not help.

However, I can start a kernel by running
|
jupyter notebook
|
from the terminal and copying the kernel address and selecting 'connect to an existing kernel' from the drop down in the console menu and entering that kernel, and it works fine. But I would like to avoid doing this. Any ideas? I confess I don't fully understand the error it is presenting in the console window.
