Rt 3.8.1: Graphical charts are not available. error

Hi folks,

I hope this is the right list to submit my quesstion. Sorry in advance
if it isn’t.

I upgraded to rt 3.8.1 last month and when I try to plot (bar or pie)
the output of ticket searches
I get the error “Graphical charts are not available”.

I looked in the archives and saw the following “Re: Hierarchy View in
3.8” by Helmuth Ramirez.
Following this thread I did the following:

  • installed graphviz from http://www.graphviz.org/ using
    yum install ‘graphviz*’

    I got the error: yum install graphviz-php.i386 ← missing dependency
    graphviz = 2.16-1.el5 is
    needed by package graphviz-php

    So I then -

  • downloaded the source from http://www.graphviz.org/ and installed it.

  • “yum install webdot” and did a

    perl -MCPAN -e ‘install GraphViz’

  • ran the command “dot -c” in an xterm.

rebooted the system and still no luck.

I see the following in the apache2.access log file but nothing looks
like a glaring reason why
it won’t graph:

AFAIK GraphViz is only used to show relationship charts for dependencies, linked tickets, etc. Instead GD is used for displaying charts based on ticket search results (GD::Graph) Am I wrong? I assume Graphs based on ticket search results was working before the upgrade. Try adding this to your RT_SiteConfig:

Set($DisableGD, 0);

or

Set($DisableGD, undef);

If that doesn’t work after an apache restart, there are other things to try. Also if someone out there knows, does --enable-gd during RT configure simply set the DisableGD value in RT_Config to undef or 1?

I would try reinstalling GD::Graph from CPAN (forcing if necessary).
Perhaps the RT upgrade was coincidental to a redhat perl rpm upgrade?

It appears ‘–enable-gd’ or ‘–with-gd’ in configure simply turns on the testing for whether GD is installed and working, if so it will either set DisableGD to 1 or undef depending on the test. Janet, I’m betting DisableGD set to undef is what will make the magic happen.-----Original Message-----

I would try reinstalling GD::Graph from CPAN (forcing if necessary).
Perhaps the RT upgrade was coincidental to a redhat perl rpm upgrade?

I upgraded to rt 3.8.1 last month and when I try to plot (bar or pie)
the output of ticket searches
I get the error “Graphical charts are not available”.

I looked in the archives and saw the following “Re: Hierarchy View in
3.8” by Helmuth Ramirez.
Following this thread I did the following:

  • installed graphviz from http://www.graphviz.org/ using
    yum install ‘graphviz*’

    I got the error: yum install graphviz-php.i386 ← missing dependency
    graphviz = 2.16-1.el5 is
    needed by package graphviz-php

    So I then -

  • downloaded the source from http://www.graphviz.org/ and installed it.

  • “yum install webdot” and did a

    perl -MCPAN -e ‘install GraphViz’

  • ran the command “dot -c” in an xterm.

rebooted the system and still no luck.

I see the following in the apache2.access log file but nothing looks
like a glaring reason why
it won’t graph:

There doesn’t seem like there needs to be an entry for this in the
RT_SiteConfig.pm file in order
to get this to work but I could be missing the bleeding obvious.

All suggestions welcome!

thanks.

Hi Eli,

Thanks.

I didn’t modify my new SiteConfig file for graphing. Did I miss
something? In my previous verion (3.6.5) I didn’t have to
add anything special for bar and pie graphs to work, so I assumed I
didn’t need any new graphing mods in my 3.8.1 Site config file.

j

It won’t hurt anything to set the DisableGD to undef anywhere in the SiteConfig (except the last line)… it can only help. Give it a shot, restart apache and tell me how it goes.From: Janet Houser [mailto:jhouser@cfa.harvard.edu]

Janet, if after the SiteConfig mod you get “You’ve enabled GD, but we couldn’t load the module: xxx” then you need to reinstall GD::Graph as Drew suggested.

Hi Eli,

I put an entry “Set($DisableGD, undef);” and restarted httpd. The good
news is that the error went away. The
bad is that it still doesn’t plot. That’s weird.

Check your apache error log. I put up a fresh copy of 3.8.1 (src,
not emerged) on a gentoo 2.6.25 box before I update our main instance.

I get this in my error_log when trying to graph something in RT. I have
not pursued any further at this point because of other projects.
