I have an Ubuntu 16.04 Virtual Machine with anaconda installed, And I want it to launch Jupyter-notebook on startup with the correct configuration file (ip address, port, password,...)
This configuration is specified in /home/user/.jupyter/jupyter_notebook_config.py
When I'm logged as user and in the home directory(/home/user/) it does launch the correct config file.
But when using the command
jupyter-notebook
During startup with rc.local or using crontab it's doesn't load my configuration file, and have not the correct running directory.

To install Jupyter Notebook on Ubuntu, we need to set up Anaconda environments for JupyterLab: 1. SSH to your server, open your terminal and run the following apt update and apt install command. This command updates your server's package index and installs the dependencies required to add new repositories over HTTPS.
To launch Jupyter Notebook App: Click on spotlight, type terminal to open a terminal window. Enter the startup folder by typing cd /some_folder_name .
How to open Jupyter Notebook. To launch a Jupyter notebook, open your terminal and navigate to the directory where you would like to save your notebook. Then type the command jupyter notebook and the program will instantiate a local server at localhost:8888 (or another specified port).

You could add the following line to your /etc/rc.local file
su <username> -c "jupyter notebook --config=/location/of/your/config/file/.jupyter/jupyter_notebook_config.py --no-browser --notebook-dir=/location/of/yournotebooks" &
e.g.
su simon -c "jupyter notebook --config=/home/simon/.jupyter/jupyter_notebook_config.py --no-browser --notebook-dir=/home/simon/notebooks" &
su <username> -c makes sure that the notebook is not executed as root but with the specified user account.``
--config and --notebook-dir specify the location of your config file and your notebook folder (http://jupyter-notebook.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config.html)
For systems using systemd (Ubuntu 16 and later) the following approach also works:
Create a service file in /etc/systemd/system/, e.g. jupyter.service with the following content (replace YourUserName with your username)
[Unit]
After=network.service
[Service]
ExecStart=jupyter notebook
User=YourUserName
[Install]
WantedBy=default.target
Enable the service with sudo systemctl enable jupyter.service
sudo systemctl start jupyter.service
You should set a password for your Jupyter server because you won't have access to the token.
