I downloaded sage-4.8-OSX-64bit-10.6-x86_64-Darwin-app.p0.dmg to my Mac OSX 10.7.3 (lion). I can start Sage from the terminal and do command line calculations, but when I say notebook() it gives me an error (traceback below). Same thing when I tried with the non-app version. It used to work fine when I was on Snow Leopard!

Traceback:

sage: notebook()

It works if I start sage from command line as

./sage -c "notebook(interface='localhost', directory='./sage_notebook.sagenb',port=8000)"

I found the answer in an earlier thread (Jason grout, ctennenh) that I had missed (modulo tweaking it a bit).

thanks!

I just had a similar issue, after years of running Sage with no problems (I have 4.6) an error message like the above appeared when I called notebook(). I found this page, and tried Ram's solution, which "worked" in the sense that Sage opened in my browser (after prompting me for a new password). Did I just nuke all my files?
