error messages from json/decoder.py ?

[chi-hung]

After excuting:

jupyter console --kernel java

I've got the following error messages. Something wrong?

Can you post your kernal config json? That error suggests there is an error in parsing that file. Looks like a comma missing.

[chi-hung]

Here it is. Sorry for the late reply. By the way, in order to see if jshell works, I switched to java9 and typed java -jar kulla.jar in terminal. I find out that the jshell can start and I can do some basic stuffs interactively without problem. So, could it be something wrong between Python and the java kernel?

  1 { 
  2  "argv": ["python3", "/Users/chweng/javakernel",
  3           "-f", "{connection_file}"],
  4  "display_name": "Java 9",
  5  "language": "java"
  6  "env" : {
  7      "JAVA_9_HOME": "/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-9.jdk/Contents/Home",
  8      "KULLA_HOME": "/Users/chweng/kulla/kulla.jar"
  9      }   
 10 } 

[chi-hung]

uh..., you are right. There's a comma missing at line 5. Now, the following is my new kernel config. (I wasn't sure if it is necessary to add the -f {connection file}?)

  1 {
  2  "argv": ["python3", "/Users/chweng/javakernel"],
  3  "display_name": "Java 9",
  4  "language": "java",
  5  "env" : {
  6      "JAVA_9_HOME": "/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-9.jdk/Contents/Home",
  7      "KULLA_HOME": "/Users/chweng/kulla/kulla.jar"
  8      }
  9 }

Anyway, after typing

jupyter console --kernel java

I still get some error messages:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/jupyter_console/ptshell.py", line 302, in init_kernel_info reply = self.client.get_shell_msg(timeout=1) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/jupyter_client/client.py", line 77, in get_shell_msg return self.shell_channel.get_msg(_args, *_kwargs) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/jupyter_client/blocking/channels.py", line 57, in get_msg raise Empty queue.Empty

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

It appeared that the kernel died somehow?

[Bachmann1234]

Yeah, I think the kernel is broken. Not sure why. Im thinking something changes in ipython but I am not likely going to be able to look into this for a while
