Lesson1: OSError: Is a directory: data/dogscats/valid/dogs/.ipynb_checkpoints

working from In jupyterlab console brings this error from clouderizer link

removed files from google drive and removed project from clouderizer and redid it yet the lesson1.ipynb somehow was the same as the previous setup. How is that possible? How do i make a clean slate?

As I was writing this, with the colaboratory app from with file from drive it now worked . However external code which I added before scrapping the google drive folder to check gpu memory and removing and replacing clouderizer fast.ai project was present in the notebook?

Also the fresh notebook used for the ubuntu !wget linking to clouderizer is perpetually working showing [Thread-463(etc)] INFO com.clouderizer.client.utils.Logger - ERROR>2018/09/26 16:51:25 NOTICE: tutorials/fastai: Can’t follow symlink without -L/–copy-links. Whats up with that?

If you scroll to the very end of that loooong stack trace, it tells you, ultimately, what the error was: Inside the folder that should have all the dog images, there was a folder .ipynb_checkpoints, which confuses the data loader, because it doesn’t want to see folders inside the validation set category folders.

This folder gets created in the same folder as the jupyter notebook file you’re currently working on, so I assume that you accidentally started / opened jupyter inside that folder.
