You should have been able to run your original notebook server by doing
sage: notebook(dir="sage_notebook")
where sage_notebook is the directory where your sage notebook is located.
The only change in the notebook since 2.8 was to make the default for dir
$HOME/.sage/sage_notebook
Alternatively, you could have deleted $HOME/.sage/sage_notebook
and then done
cp -rv $HOME/sage_notebook $HOME/.sage/
