Hi: The previous message from you indicated that version 2.7.2 has been fixed for the problem of sage recycling when notebook is entered at login. However, when I downloaded 2.7.2 and vmware on my home machine and tried running, I had the same problem as on my office machine. gani -- --~--~---

Sorry, this didn't work. I re-downloaded the sage-2.7.2 and tried again. After about 10 sec following 'notebook' input, SAGE recycles back to login prompt. sage-2.7 works fine (except it doesn't have the notebook mods 2.7.2 version has). gani -- On Jul 30, 2:24 pm, "William Stein" <[EMAIL PRO

Gani, Regarding your sage-2.7.2 upgrade problem, we had a network outage at AIM (http://aimath.org) where I'm at right now, so I wasn't able to upload a new version of SAGE. I'm currently uploading something so that "sage -upgrade" should fix your problem. It should be uploaded within 10 minute

Hi: Sorry to say that this also didn't work. I had already downloaded 2.7.2 and upgrading it didn't work, so I reinstalled 2.7 (form zip file on hard disk) and did an upgrade from that which took some time, but the same problem was repeated. So, I will have to reinstall 2.7 from .zip file again t

Hi, I just realized I could probably fix your problem (and many other people's similar problem) by releasing a slightly newer version of SAGE. So I'm releasing sage-2.7.2.1 which should fix the notebook problem on vmware transparently. Just do "sage -upgrade" once sage-2.7.2.1 appears here (pro

Hi: I just did a sage -upgrade and after that I tried to start up the server with 'notebook' at the sage login prompt. The web server starts up and VMWare then recycles to get back to the sage login prompt. This is highly discouraging since everything was working fine prior to this. Help! thanks
