I don’t know if i’m in the right place; if not I apologize; onward.
So I have a fresh install of metabase (with jdk8) and when visiting the site, all appears to work fine, I’ll leave the tab open, and come back – to a whitescreen and unresponsive on the tab; I thought it might just be a pie graph or report in the wild, but it happened at the “dashboard” screen as well. (which has no reports or anything on there yet)
In addition, when I try to use the “sorting” option, (the … drop down on a question) – it locks up, and ultimately goes to the same whitescreen.
I really like the product, and was hoping to resolve these small quirks preventing me from populating this fully.
I ran into this as well. Check to see if your machine maxing out memory usage.
I'm was running Metabase on a Digital Ocean server with 512MB of RAM and that was not nearly enough. I'm now using a 2GB droplet and it's running nicely. I would recommend that your host machine have at least 2GB or RAM.
Here's a chart of my server's RAM usage(Ubuntu 14.04). Before June 30th I tried 512MB and 1GB droplets and they did not run well.
If the screen goes blank in any other situation you should check the log for any errors. You should also check for errors in the browser’s developer console which can usually be access by hitting f12 on your keyboard(don’t know if it’s the same for Mac)
Hey guys, I tried in both chrome & firefox – latest versions.
Is there any other? – I tease, so it seems someone else is experiencing this; I was thinking it may be a configurational thing, but I couldn’t really find anyway to tweak the configurational settings (other then a few path vars).
Maybe it’s relevant, maybe not, but some of my DB servers are in another NOC
