403 Forbidden Error When Using Virtual Environment in Jupyter Notebook (Version Below 7)

I’m encountering a 403 Forbidden error when trying to use a virtual environment with Jupyter Notebook (version below 7). The error occurs while attempting to configure jupyter_nbextensions_configurator. Here is the error traceback:

[jupyter_nbextensions_configurator] wrote error: 'Forbidden'
    Traceback (most recent call last):

I have tried several solutions but have not been able to resolve the issue. I’m using a Jupyter Notebook version below 7 within a virtual environment, and the problem occurs when I attempt to set up a specific nbextension.

If anyone has experienced this issue or has any suggestions on how to fix it, your help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
