No module named pandas error even though I have it installed and interpreter set (Dataspell, Jupyter notebook/lab))

Question

Package manager: conda

• Using virtual environment: base conda environment

• Errors found in the following IDEs: Dataspell, Jupyter notebook

- No errors in the following IDE: vs code

error:

import pandas as pd

no module named 'pandas'

First I'll go through the dataspell/jupyter notebook issue

Dataspell/jupyter notebook

Notice the executable. It's not using the conda python exe. Notice the path. Reaffirms that it's not seeing the anaconda directory.

But when I open the interpreter settings for this workspace,

The kernelspec

Note: There's only one kernel spec directory

The file looks like this

It works in vscode

Again Notice the executable and path. Both are using/seeing the anaconda python exe.

So my question is this - Why isn't dataspell/jupyter notebook seeing anaconda as a path and using the base env? And how do I fix it?

Answer 1

The link in Wayne's comment worked. Just needed to create a new kernel by going into the virtual environment. https://stackoverflow.com/a/71733561/8508004 is the post that has the answer.
