Cannot create conda environment

JupyterHub Zero to JupyterHub on Kubernetes
1

Following this link: Customizing User Environment — Zero to JupyterHub with Kubernetes documentation, I want to create users’ own conda environment, but I cannot activate.
I pull Quay and build with nb_conda_kernels.

jovyan@jupyter-xiao1:~$ conda list
..................
nbconvert-core            7.16.4             pyhd8ed1ab_1    conda-forge
.....................

I also create /home/jovyan/.condarc:

jovyan@jupyter-xiao1:~$ more .condarc
envs_dirs:
  - /home/jovyan/my-conda-envs/

Then I create a new conda environment with: conda create -n myenv ipykernel scipy
I can see the myenv by:

jovyan@jupyter-xiao1:~$ conda info --envs
# conda environments:
#
myenv                    /home/jovyan/my-conda-envs/myenv
base                  *  /opt/conda

When I activate myenv, I am always required to init. After I run: conda init, and try to activate myenv, I am still be asked to init.

jovyan@jupyter-xiao1:~$ conda activate myenv                                                                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                                                                                              
CondaError: Run 'conda init' before 'conda activate'

Any help? Thanks.

OK. I can see the conda environment on Launcher, not from the Terminal. It works now. Thanks.
