Hi everyone,

I’ve just updated bokeh and holoviews with

conda install -c ioam holoviews bokeh

and now I’ve problems importing show, output_notebook and output_file from bokeh.io.

The error it gives me is as follows:

ImportError Traceback (most recent call last)
in ()
25 import bokeh as bkh
26 import bokeh.models as bkhm
—> 27 from bokeh.io import output_file
28 from bokeh.io import output_notebook
29 from bokeh.io import show
~\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\bokeh\io_init_.py in ()
18 log = logging.getLogger(name)
19
—> 20 from bokeh.util.api import general, dev ; general, dev
21
22 #-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

ImportError: cannot import name ‘general’

I’ve also tried to downgrade from 0.12.15 to 0.12.14 but it doesnt solve the issue.

Can someone help me?

Hi,

Your install is corrupted somehow. I would suggest blowing away everything bokeh related in site packages and reinstalling. Or better, create a new fresh conda environment or virtualenv. Also check to make sure that you are aren’t running the notebook from a different environment than the one you are updating bokeh in.

Thanks,

Bryan

Thank you for your answer Bryan! The last sentence made me think about re-trying after having restarted the kernel of my Jupyter Notebook and indeed now everything runs smoothly. Thank you!
