Hi.
I am trying to import ROOT in python3 (3.9.18) in a Jupyter notebook using VSCode.
My local machine is Mac, running on lxplus server.
I verified that root was compiled for this python version and that I can import ROOT from console.
When doing import ROOT
from the notebook I get the following error.
{
"name": "RuntimeError",
"message": "property type mismatch or assignment not allowed",
"stack": "---------------------------------------------------------------------------
RuntimeError Traceback (most recent call last)

}
Thank you for the help.
