Perhaps you can help me out.\r\n\r\nI followed the instructions [here](http://beakernotebook.com/getting-started) and have even reinstalled both Julia and Beaker since – without success. The error message when trying to start the Python kernel in Beaker (same with Julia) is the following:\r\n\r\n![5oi9g](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/4765944/23345118/b269a006-fc80-11e6-9f94-c65b8b9d6a2a.png)\r\n\r\n`which python3` returns `/Users/username/anaconda/bin/python3`. I initially used this path in my `beaker.pref.json` but it did not work. Following some advice on StackExchange I then did a separate installation of Python3 at `/Users/username/anaconda/envs/py35/bin` – just to match the path in the example on the website more closely – and pointed `beaker.pref.json` to it (see below).\r\n\r\nMy `beaker.pref.json` file looks like this:\r\n\r\n```\r\n{\r\n  \"pref-format\" : \"1\",\r\n  \"allow-anonymous-usage-tracking\" : true,\r\n  \"languages\" : {\r\n    \"IPython\" : {\r\n      \"path\" : \"/Users/constantin/anaconda/bin\"\r\n    },\r\n    \"Python3\" : {\r\n      \"path\" : \"/Users/constantin/anaconda/envs/py35/bin\"\r\n    }\r\n  },\r\n  \"advanced-mode\" : false,\r\n  \"edit-mode\" : \"default\"\r\n}\r\n```\r\n\r\nNote that the directory really is called `/py35/` instead of `/py3k`. The same error message still appears and I have run out of ideas. I'd greatly appreciate any help you can provide!"}}
