I wanted to follow the following tutorial: [Variant Calling Workflow](https://training.galaxyproject.org/training-material/topics/data-science/tutorials/bash-variant-calling/tutorial.html)  
so I tried opening RStudio, by clicking run tool, and the history shows the following:  
RStudio  
Add Tags  
This job is waiting to run.  
format **ipynb** , database ?

and in the user \> Active Interactive Tools, it says that, RStudio stopped 2 minutes ago.  
Please help me.

Welcome @vidya_sagar

I can reproduce this but I think that message refers to the tool still being queued for execution. Once the dataset turns yellow, then you can use the interactive session.

You could also try at a different server. I was able to start up a session at [UseGalaxy.org](http://UseGalaxy.org) in just a few minutes.

Each server has a different tool execution load on any particular day. For this tool, the usage experience would be the same at any once actually started.

Hope this helps! 🙂

I can confirm that I too have this problem on [usegalaxy.eu](http://usegalaxy.eu) with `Interactive JupyTool and notebook`.

When I tried to `load a previous notebook` yesterday (23rd April 2024), then it took hours to see a response, and ultimately the notebook often started in a stopped state. The tags on the right-hand History panel remained grey, neither yellow nor green.

 ![IMG_2024-04-24_09_08_04](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/galaxy/original/2X/f/f710fabebad0fcce788c289d2c327411cf89b32b.png)

Maybe my problem is that only one notebook at a time by one user is allowed\* and I started multiple, so each new one was automatically prevented from running.  
\*See here:  
[https://help.galaxyproject.org/t/error-with-rstudio-crashed-and-impossible-to-run-again/12219/2?u=bence.melykuti](https://help.galaxyproject.org/t/error-with-rstudio-crashed-and-impossible-to-run-again/12219/2)

Now I shut down the running one. Thereafter very quickly a stopped one started running. I stopped that too. A new stopped one started. This way I could deal with the stopped ones by shutting them down one after the other.
