Matplotlib AttributeError: module 'matplotlib.cbook' has no attribute '_define_aliases'

When trying to plot a graph on jupyter with pyplot I am running the following code:



import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.plot([1,2,3,4])
plt.ylabel('some numbers')
plt.show()


This is returning the following error:

My matplotlib has always worked fine without the jupyter. I have tried a complete reinstall of matplotlib, jupyter and python again since but still getting the same error. Maybe someone had the same problem?

  • Maybe IPython tries to use another/different/old version of matplotlib it would find instead of the one you installed.

I had this exact error .The problem was that 2 packages of matplotlib was installed one by conda and one by pip



To test for this:



$ conda list matplotlib



matplotlib 2.0.2 np113py35_0
matplotlib 2.1.1



Problem! Fix:



$ pip uninstall matplotlib



Probably a good idea to force matplotlib upgrade to the version pip wanted:



$ conda install matplotlib=2.1.1
