Splunk for Exchange 2.0 - Blank charts with 4.3.4

[letienne]

Hello,

I just upgraded from 4.3.3 to 4.3.4 and Splunk for Exchange to 2.0, and now it seems that all the charts are blank or empty. The data is here when I run the search manually, but the dashboard just stays blank. By blank I mean that I see a blank empty rectangle; it does NOT say "no results found":

I can make some of the charts appear by resizing the chart panel, but not all. Not sure if this is a Splunk or Splunk for Exchange issue. I have chart in other apps that work just fine.

Have any of you seen this issue?

Thanks !

Kind regards,

I found a workaround to this issue:

Replacing "module name="JSChart" by "module name="FlashChart"" in the views.xml allow the charts to render properly.

Is there anything I can do to help you find out what's wrong with JSChart?

If you have a paid version, open up a support case. I think you have given me enough to work on, though. Since it happens in all browsers, it should be easy enough to track down.

Given that the chart appears when you re-size it, I'm going to go out on a limb and say "Splunk issue" - what browser and version are you using?

Running the search defined in sizing_messages.xml by hand gives me data:

It really looks like a rendering issue. Is there any way to force flash rendering from the xml to see if this changes anything?

Check the underlying data - this chart is produced via a summarization in saved_searches.conf, so the data may not be there yet. Ensure the saved search is running and producing the correct summarization.

Win7x64SP1, with IE9, Firefox 4, or Chrome 19.

I am unable to make the charts above appear by resizing them. It works, however, with the "Message Rate" from the "dashboard_live".

Any idea on how I could fix this?

Can anyone with 4.3.4 and Splunk for Exchange 2.0 display this properly?

Thanks !
