Bruce, I did what you suggested.

* Can you run gnuplot from the command line?

Yes.

* If so, what is the default terminal? To find out, do this at the gnuplot command line: "show terminal”

“aqua” is the default terminal.

* If the default terminal is something other than "X11", "wxt", or "qt", can you reset it? That is done at the gnuplot command line by, for instance, "set terminal wxt”

I reset as suggested. gnuplot is working fine. The plot is generated. Even with “aqua”, the plot is visualized.

* Can you make a plot? To find out, plot a sine wave at the gnuplot command line with "plot sin(x)”

Yes. I just tested and left the gnuplot window opened and ran “athena” in another terminal, but there is no communication with gnuplot. Still, no data is plotted.

Hi again, I just reinstalled ?xorg-server demeter?, now I get: /private/tmp/com.apple.launchd.lXiE4HyZ2W/org.macports:0

but there is no plot window. The problem remains.

Hi All,

The result I get is /private/tmp/com.apple.launchd.a2i2wnuP2l/org.macosforge.xquartz:0 and Athena is working fine on my system.

Hi Raimundo (and R?mi),

I'm not a pro here but, have you installed xorg-server? It seems like your $DISPLAY variables are not being set correctly. The problem might be XQuartz. The demeter build from Macports doesn't know to use that X windows server (everything is installed in different places) and is looking for the macports version. Your $DISPLAY variable should be something with org.macports rather than org.macosforge.xquartz:0. FWIW, xorg-server is maintained by and updated with XQuartz.

Good luck,

Alison

Dear all,

I have the same problems installing Athena/Demeter on Yosemite (10.10.5) as Remi. Also in my case (as for R?mi) - I use the R?mi?s message edited as required to my softwares? versions:

...

Athena launches well from the Terminal, I have the main window (perl5.22), I can import data or load former athena projects etc, but there is no plot window. No error message shows up in the terminal.

...

I?ve *carefully* installed Macports 2.3.3, i.e., installed Xcode Version 7.0 (7A220), agreed to Xcode licence, and installed Macports for OS X 10.10 Yosemite. I runned the "sudo port -v selfupdate" command Then "sudo port install demeter-devel?

...

And port upgrade outdated to ensure everything is up to date Plus, I have XQuartz 2.7.7 installed.

I also uninstalled and reinstalled macports (and Xcode, xquartz) but the problem remains.

By typing echo $DISPLAY /private/tmp/com.apple.launchd.RgzrDheMAp/org.macosforge.xquartz:0

Any guess? Many thanks in advance. Raimundo

1. No plot window in Athena/Demeter on Mac OS X Yosemite (R?mi BELISSONT)

Hello,

I?m currently using Athena using the iXAFS 3.0.3 application, which is ? if I?ve well understood ? an old version no longer updated ( http://cars9.uchicago.edu/ifeffit/Downloads < http://cars9.uchicago.edu/ifeffit/Downloads>).

So, today I tried to install the current version by installing Demeter, following the procedure detailed at http://bruceravel.github.io/demeter/ http://bruceravel.github.io/demeter/.

I?ve *carefully* installed Macports 2.3.3, i.e., installed Xcode 6.4, agreed to Xcode licence, and installed Macports for OS X 10.10 Yosemite. I runned the sudo port -v self update command Then sudo port install xorg-server demeter And port upgrade outdated to ensure everything is up to date Plus, I have XQuartz 2.7.7 installed.

Here is my problem. Athena launches well from the Terminal (in home directory), I have the main window (pearl5.22), I can import data or load former athena projects etc, but there is no plot window. No error message shows up in the terminal. However I can still produce a PNG of the plot I?m desperately trying to see via Plots/Save last plot as...

I?ve seen a similar thread concerning such an issue in OS X Mavericks but couldn?t solve it from what was explained there ( http://millenia.cars.aps.anl.gov/pipermail/ifeffit/2014-January/011644.html < http://millenia.cars.aps.anl.gov/pipermail/ifeffit/2014-January/011644.html>). I guess the issue comes from the DISPLAY environment but I don?t have any clue to solve that.

Thank you in advance for your help, I think it may be useful for other users,

Kind regards,

R?mi
