The course id has not been set in nbgrader_config.py. The "release" and "collect" functionality will not be available. Please see the documentation on Setting Up The Exchange for instructions.

Operating system:

Ubuntu 16.04 64bit

python --version

3.6.3

nbgrader --version

0.5.4

jupyterhub --version (if used with JupyterHub)

0.9.2

jupyter notebook --version

5.6.0

Expected behavior

NBgrader will work perfectly.

Actual behavior

Cannot release and collect

Steps to reproduce the behavior

run under root ( BTW: I also installed my JupyterHub using root)

jupyterhub --no-ssl --config=/etc/juypterhub/jupyterhub_config.py --debug

Then open browser and log in, on the “Manage Assignments” page, it shows: The course id has not been set in nbgrader_config.py. The “release” and “collect” functionality will not be available. Please see the documentation on Setting Up The Exchange for instructions.

Please give me a valid nbgrader_config.py and tell me where to put it.

This seems to have been closed without resolution. Could we get a resolution that includes a minimal config file, where to put it, and what the permissions should be set to? Or a pointer to the relevant part of the docs? As far as I can tell the docs do not answer these questions.
