I find it annoying to have to type a password to access my local sage notebook worksheets. Is there any way to disable the password? It makes no sense for my local installation.

Try:

sage: notebook(require_login=False)

at a Sage prompt, or:

$ sage --notebook require_login=False

from a terminal. This is behavior documented in the docstring:

sage: notebook?

See the third item under the "EXAMPLES" section.

After resetting the password, i tried

sage: notebook(require_login=False)

and received an error.

It was then suggested that I try

sage: notebook(automatic_login=True)

in order to automatically login as admin.

Yes, the interface to the notebook changed a few releases ago, so that the accepted answer is no longer true. Doing `sage: notebook?` still will give you the documentation one needs, luckily.

using sage notebook 5.11

sage -c "notebook(secure=False, automatic_login=True)"

only landed me at the notebook's login page (so i initially thought the feature only by-passed some internal 'server'), but on trying another browser, i discovered that explicitly setting the browser via the SAGE_BROWSER environment variable gets this working as i'd hoped (i.e. straight through to the worksheet selection/create page and logged-in as 'admin')

SAGE_BROWSER=firefox sage -c "notebook(secure=False, automatic_login=True)"

possibly a bug then..
