can not connect to kernel from datalab

[eilalan]

Hello,

Please see the linke for the kernel issue: https://drive.google.com/file/d/19knBbbGSjdndHc8txS_a5NRb8pW8X0Bf/view?usp=sharing

• i cant get python 2 or python 3 attached.
  This issues is on datalab with gcsfuse image that I was using for the last month with no issues.

I have created a new datalab + gcsfuse image with the latest datalab and there importing h5py was firing an error
import h5py

anything else is working.

Any idea what might be the issue for any of them.

Thanks,
Eila

For the H5Py issue, here is the code:
`
!pip install h5py
Requirement already satisfied: h5py in /usr/local/envs/py2env/lib/python2.7/site-packages
Requirement already satisfied: numpy>=1.7 in /usr/local/envs/py2env/lib/python2.7/site-packages (from h5py)
Requirement already satisfied: six in /usr/local/envs/py2env/lib/python2.7/site-packages (from h5py)

import h5py
ImportErrorTraceback (most recent call last)
in ()
----> 1 import h5py

/usr/local/envs/py2env/lib/python2.7/site-packages/h5py/init.py in ()
24 # We tried working around this by using "package_dir" but that breaks Cython.
25 try:
---> 26 from . import _errors
27 except ImportError:
28 import os.path as _op

ImportError: cannot import name _errors
`
any idea what is the issue?
Thanks,
Eila

The h5py thing will be fixed by #1971

Until then:
!pip install h5py --upgrade --force-reinstall
Followed by resetting the session (to pick up the new import) worked for me.

Thank you. I was able to work with h5py.
I don't know where to report on that. Connecting to datalab during the weekend was challenging. The Google Cloud Platform status looks good but connecting to local host yield: 504 Gateway Time-out many times during the weekend.
Thanks for your help,
Eila
