Graph View does not work on Mac OSX through the macports

[gobi]

I tried to run OpenERP GTK client on Mac OSX using macports. Generally it is working fine.

There are only two problems I am facing so far are:
1. Calendar view does not work because of there are no python-hippocanvas on macports (I reported it on #738678)
2. Graph view also does not work. Here I am reporing it.

Hello,

Thanks to solve this please... more than 2 years using Openerp with this bug on macos.

Regards,

Thierry

note : python-hippocanvas is deprecated...

Thierry, in your trace it says matplotlib is missing a _backend_gdk. Macport's matplotlib has multiple variants for all its possible backends:

    py26-matplotlib has the variants:
       cairo: Enable Cairo backends
       ghostscript: Enable GhostScript support
       gtk2: Enable GTKAgg backend
       latex: Enable LaTeX support
       qt4: Enable QT4Agg backend
    [+]tkinter: Enable tkAgg backend
       universal: Build for multiple architectures
       wxpython: Enable wxAgg backend

By default (as noted by the [+]), only tkinter is selected so matplotlib will *not* work in a GTK application. Have you tried enabling the GTK2 and cairo backends (not sure which one is going to be used, but probably one of these)? You'll need to uninstall matplotlib and reinstall it with those variants, by the way.

(on my machine, graphs display correctly with matplotlib installed and a bunch of backends, though on my machine I've installed pretty much all of the available backends not just GDK)

[Thierry (tboulogne)]

Hello,

Thanks for your reply Xavier and sorry for my answer delay (i did not subscribe to the bug :-(. )
I will install all the backing like :-) and let you know.

Regards,

[Thierry (tboulogne)]

Xavier,

i get the graphic after some compiling and mysterious thing :
i compile with python2.7 but i need to launch the client with python2.6 to get graphics :-).

Regarding calendar view, python-hypocanvas is always requested... and sure deprecated.
So no calendar view on mac :-(.

Thanks for all.

As per the XMO's comment #6 (All are working fine with macOS)
So this problem occurs due to the packages , That's why I am closing this issue.

Thanks!

Hello,

not solved.... don't where you see all are working fine with macOS ;-(
