How do I run a python script on a Sagemaker notebook instance?

Question

I have a python script that I would like to run from a terminal attached to my sagemaker notebook instance. I'm using the provided Data Science 3.0 image on a t3.medium.

My process:
1. Start the notebook instance
2. Launch terminal using icon in notebook toolbar
3. Activate conda environment (base)
4. Run script with: `python myscript.py arg1`

At this point I receive this error:
ImportError: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.29' not found (required by /opt/conda/lib/python3.10/site-packages/pandas/_libs/window/aggregations.cpython-310-x86_64-linux-gnu.so)

The above error stems from a simple `import sagemaker` statement

The import runs perfectly fine in the notebook, however in the terminal I get the error. From what I can tell the kernel and system path are both identical. Running `!python myscript.py arg1` from inside the notebook also returns the same error. What am I missing?

Answer

Hi - Thanks for reaching out. In the notebook can you please run 
```!which python and !echo $PATH``` to determine the Python interpreter and path being used. Can you please also do the same in the terminal and compare the outputs?
