      Well, when I try to save changes I get on an otherwise blank screen:

      XML error: USE_RRD_GATEWAY at line 53 cannot occur more than once
      

      Actually, I don't have this field defined any more since it doesn't work at all on my machines…

        The field is still defined.  Remove it then remove /tmp/config.cache.

          I deleted the line in config.xml and restored the configuration. I never got anything else but a blank graph and decided I just don't care anymore.

          This is on both my machines with a full install and the same provider.

          Which XML file is the message refering to? I could dig in there…

            Are you sure about the widget's path you specify in the .PDF?
            I saw mine at: /usr/local/**www/**widgets/…

                So after a few hours of running the package I check the first page and found the below image. I'm using snapshot 1.2-BETA-1-TESTING-05-27-2007. Nothing in the system log or package log. Shows the same way in ie and in firefox. A reboot did not clear it up.

                I also can't remove that package and re-installing didn't work. Just hangs and gives me:
                "Removing package…
                Loading package configuration dashboard.xml...
                Loading package instructions..."

                    Did that didn't change anything. I did get it to work again after trying a few things. I did a backup and restore of my config file, then I reinstalled all packages, it still wasn't working but, then I was able to delete dashboard and re-install it. It may have been a problem with my other packages, a few seemed to be messed up.

                      I had this when I upgraded to the latest snapshot, well actually I had the default home page, and the package installed, so I tried to delete the package so that I could reinstall it, but got the same as you.

                      What I did was download the XML config, remove the package entry from it, upload it again. Then I could reinstall the package again. When I reinstalled it still did not change the home page from the default, but I delete it (which worked fine this time) then installed it again, and its all back (but still can't get logs or graphs to work).

                        Hi,

                        pFSense rocks :)

                        Is there a way to install this package on embedded snapshot?

                        Thanks

                          In the upcoming 1.3 Release all versions, including embedded, will have the dashboard installed by default. Once 1.2 is out the door the beta for 1.3 will follow shortly after that.

                              I am trying to make a carp status widget starting with the code from the interfaces widget and the carp status page and using the pdf as a guide.

                              I made something that I think might work and tried to get it to show on the dashboard. It is in the menu for adding but nothing happens it just stays the same.

                              So I guessed my code had bugs (normally does) so I tried a hello world widget

                              
                              | Hello world |
                              | Hello world |
                              
                              

                              same problem so I copied the Interfaces widget renaming it interfaces2 and this also wont show on the page.
                              the firefox error console says

                              Error: element has no properties
                              Source File: https://pfwall.example.com/javascript/scriptaculous/effects.js
                              Line: 561

                              Do I need to do something extra to make the widget show some config etc???

                              Thanks

                                Yes. Here is the code that makes the traffic graphs widget configurable:

                                Refresh Interval:
                                <select name="refreshInterval" class="formfld" id="refreshInterval" onchange="updateGraphDisplays();"><option value="1" <?php="" if="" ($refreshinterval="=" "1")="" echo="" "selected";?="">>1</option> <option value="2" <?php="" if="" ($refreshinterval="=" "2")="" echo="" "selected";?="">>2</option> <option value="3" <?php="" if="" ($refreshinterval="=" "3")="" echo="" "selected";?="">>3</option> <option value="4" <?php="" if="" ($refreshinterval="=" "4")="" echo="" "selected";?="">>4</option> <option value="5" <?php="" if="" ($refreshinterval="=" "5")="" echo="" "selected";?="">>5</option></select>   Seconds
                                      Note: changing this settings can affect CPU Performance on the pfSense Box

                                You have to have thein there with the -setting postfix. You also have to make sure the hidden shown below:

                                  Sorry I may not have been clear in the last post. This widget doesn't need any config it just displays the carp status.
                                  Actually yesterday I reinstalled the Dashboard package and the widget started displaying and working guess someone had made some changes.

                                  I posted it here http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,5407.0.html and sullrich has committed it ;D

                                  Does the widget need config data even if it has no config options??

                                  Thanks for the help

                                    Nope. Only if you have information you want to save and use for later.
