      Hi!

      I have problems with RRD graphs on an installation, the graph windows show a message "There has been an error creating the graphs. Please check your system logs for further details".

      The system log says:

      php: /status_rrd_graph_img.php: Failed to create graph with error code 1, the error is: /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libfreetype.so.9" not found, required by "rrdtool"/usr/bin/nice -n20 /usr/local/bin/rrdtool graph /tmp/system-processor.rrd-month.png –start 1333138155 --end 1335902955 --vertical-label "utilization, number" --color SHADEA#eeeeee --color SHADEB#eeeeee --title "hostname - System :: Processor - 1 month - 1 hour average" --height 200 --width 620 DEF:"user=/var/db/rrd/system-processor.rrd:user:AVERAGE" DEF:"nice=/var/db/rrd/system-processor.rrd:nice:AVERAGE" DEF:"system=/var/db/rrd/system-processor.rrd:system:AVERAGE" DEF:"interrupt=/var/db/rrd/system-processor.rrd:interrupt:AVERAGE" DEF:"processes=/var/db/rrd/system-processor.rrd:processes:AVERAGE" AREA:"user#990000:user" AREA:"nice#a83c3c:nice:STACK" AREA:"system#b36666:system:STACK" AREA:"interrupt#bd9090:interrupt:STACK" LINE2:"processes#cccccc:processes" COMMENT:"\n" COMMENT:" minimum average

      I see that it reports libfreetype.so.9 missing, but this is a fresh install and should be there...

      Any ideas how I can resolve this?

      Thanks.

        Which file did you use for the install?

        Did you install or remove any packages?

        What files are reported by the pfSense shell command```

        find / -name 'libfreetype*'

          I used the Memstick i386 file (version 2.0.1) and installed from USB - I've used that one on several identical boxes with success.

          I Installed Squid and Lightsquid.

          $ find / -name 'libfreetype*'
          /usr/local/lib/libfreetype.a
          /usr/local/lib/libfreetype.la
          /usr/local/lib/libfreetype.so
          /usr/local/lib/libfreetype.so.9

            It suddenly seems to be OK. Not sure why…

              I have the same issue on another server - when I run the find-command nothing is listed…

              How can I install these files?

                applying the full update file via manual update for the same version you're running will fix.

                  Hm, ok, but this is a remote location with a satellite connection only.

                  Is there any other way of fixing it?

                  Thanks in advance.

                  BR,
