Octave kernel for jupyter not working on windows 10

Question

I tried to install the octave kernel for jupyter using pip (as suggested here https://github.com/calysto/octave_kernel). But I cannot choose the Octave kernel when creating a new notebook.

It worked without problems on my Mac, so I guess it might be a Windows related issue.

Does someone have any ideas, how I could fix or investigate the problem? Octave is installed.

Answer 1

Setting environmental variable OCTAVE_EXECUTABLE to C:\\Octave\\Octave-4.2.1\\bin\\octave-cli.exe and restarting the PC solved the issue for me
