interact() does not display interactive UI elements
See original GitHub issueThe primary issue is that the none of the interactive UI elements appear in the output cell (I’m executing a copy of the ipywidgets examples).

This is true whether I use a Python 2.7 or Python 3.6 kernel. I’ve tried re-installing ipywidgets and running jupyter nbextension enable --py widgetsnbextension
w/ no effect.
It did initially work when running jupyter notebook
from the ipywidgets examples directory locally.
…but after updating several packages via conda
(jupyter, notebook, nbformat, et al) in attempts to resolve this issue this method too produces no interactive widgets in output cell.

@jasongrout that was the entire
jupyter nbextension list
output above.Deleting
/Users/me/.jupyter/nbconfig/notebook.json
worked!Cheers.
Assuming not, the first thing I’d do is to enable at the sys-prefix level:
jupyter nbextension enable --sys-prefix --py widgetsnbextension
. I’d probably also delete the user config file at /Users/me/.jupyter/nbconfig/notebook.json, if it didn’t have anything else in it.
