Fabric Notebook. getting a message that the current session is using the previous Default lakehouse

I can't get rid of this message when I go to my notebook.

 

The Delta lake it goes to has been deleted.

I can see the current one in the list but its greyed out so I cant use it. And every time I start spark I get this message. Even though the code works (Up to creating the PARQUET file from the data frame I have created) can anyone tell me how to resolve this because I have been trying all mroning

Hi @DebbieE,

 

You can use the %%configure magic to set a different lakehouse as the default for your Spark session

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/fabric/data-engineering/author-execute-notebook#spark-session-conf...

 

Below is an example

 

%%configure
{
    "defaultLakehouse": {  
        "name": "FourthLakehouse"
    }
}
