Activity
A few questions:
- How did you install TensorFlow?
- What directory are you running that command in?
- What happens if you open a python interpreter and type

tensorflow/tensorboard/tensorboard.pyfile on that relative path, and you should instead be using thetensorboardcommand?To answer @danmane

pip - The directory is very generic but I have tried running it on multiple directories which were owned by user.
- Running the sample python program on the getting started page works without any issues.

tensorboard --logfile ./rather thantensorflow/tensorboard/tensorboard.py --logging ./as I was trying earlier.I guess that was the only issue. But I will try to replicate it later and provide anymore details.
