notebook: localhost 8080 vs 8000
I used Sage v. 5.0 for the first time in a while and couldn't connect to the notebook. I received the message: Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost:8000.
I was still able to use Sage from the command line, but decided to install v. 5.11 to see if that would fix my problem.
In fact, it did; and now the notebook opens at localhost:8080.
Does anyone know the reason for this?
This was just a change decided on with one of the notebook upgrades, it's not a bug. I'm not really sure about the rationale, though I think that 8000 was more popular so it was better to use 8080.
