Hello,

I've installed DIM_Stat on two Linux servers running CentOS Linux release 6.0.

On either server, I cannot pull up any graphs to display. I've been able to trace it back the Web server is not generating any PNG files to display. On my browser, I just get a "X" icon (see above or attached file).

When I look at the red "X" properties, it shows http://<my_server>:8272/graphs/img_9679_1.png. When I go into the server and look at /apps/httpd/home/docs/graphs, the directory is empty. I don't know if DIM_Stat requires Java, but on one server I have Java 6 and the other server I have Java 7, but neither seems to work.

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
-Peter

Hi Peter,

Currently dim_STAT has 2 options: display graphs as PNG images (#1) or Java applets (#2). In case of Java applets, all you need is to have Java enabled within your web browser (and you may check if it's working well for you in general while clicking to a test applet link within Preferences page). However, Java applets are not lightweight as PNG images (as each applet is starting its own JVM within your browser you may even eat all your desktop memory just by displaying many graphs on the same page ;-))  So, PNG images are used by default, but seems like there is something missing to let "ploticus" (the package generating PNG files) work correctly..

May you check if there is no any library missing within your system for ploticus:

# ldd /opt/WebX/bin/pl

        linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xf7736000)
        libz.so.1 => /lib/libz.so.1 (0xf770e000)
        libX11.so.6 => /usr/lib/libX11.so.6 (0xf75d6000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0xf75ac000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xf741c000)
        libxcb.so.1 => /usr/lib/libxcb.so.1 (0xf73fd000)
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0xf73f8000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xf7737000)
        libXau.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXau.so.6 (0xf73f5000)

probably the problem is there..

Rgds,
-Dimitri

Oh bless you! I've been banging my head against a wall with this. I was missing the libX11.so.6 library. It works beautifully. :)
