Good! | Now I am seeing the same | failure as with python-rpy2. The 'palette()' call in the code throws | an exception, saying... | | No protocol specified | Warning message: | In (function (display = "", width, height, pointsize, gamma, bg, : | unable to open connection to X11 display '' | | piuparts-report responds by omitting the chart on e.g. | http://piuparts.debian.org/sid/. | | When running interactively, the palette call causes a window to be | opened, which is not easily dismissed. | | I got python-rpy2 working by removing the palette and dev_off commands. | | What is the magic to setting a palette without establishing a window? Hail Mary pass suggestion: some R packages want x11 around to get fonts etc, which has caused us grief in the past as it would prevent headless server operation. Easiest fix: install the xvfb server package and precede your (shell) command call with 'xvfb-run' eg xvfb-run python someScript.py or xvfb-run someScript.py Let's see how that goes.
