| 12 | +# Unable to create Jupyter notebook in Azure HDInsight |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +This article describes troubleshooting steps and possible resolutions for issues when interacting with Azure HDInsight clusters. |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +## Issue |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +When starting a Jupyter notebook, you receive an error message that contains: |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +```error |
| 21 | +Cannot convert notebook to v5 because that version doesn't exist |
| 22 | +``` |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +## Cause |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +A version mismatch. |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +## Resolution |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +1. Use [ssh command](../hdinsight-hadoop-linux-use-ssh-unix.md) to connect to your cluster. Edit the command below by replacing CLUSTERNAME with the name of your cluster, and then enter the command: |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | + ```cmd |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | + ``` |
| 35 | +
|
| 36 | +1. Open `_version.py` by executing the following command: |
| 37 | +
|
| 38 | + ```bash |
| 39 | + sudo nano /usr/bin/anaconda/lib/python2.7/site-packages/nbformat/_version.py |
| 40 | + ``` |
| 41 | +
|
| 42 | +1. Change **5** to **4** so the modified line appears as follows: |
| 43 | +
|
| 44 | + ```python |
| 45 | + version_info = (4, 0, 3) |
| 46 | + ``` |
| 47 | +
|
| 48 | + Save changes by entering **Ctrl + X**, **Y**, **Enter**. |
| 49 | +
|
| 50 | +1. From a web browser, navigate to `https://CLUSTERNAME.azurehdinsight.net`, where `CLUSTERNAME` is the name of your cluster. |
| 51 | +
|
| 52 | +1. Select **Jupyter** and then restart the service. |
| 53 | +
