Xymon's RRD graphs are missing fonts.


September 2014.

Problem


The graphs of your Xymon server suddenly start to be missing their texts. Instead, square lines resembling mojibake appear.

Solution


Reinstalling pango and all its dependencies, then rebuilding xymon-server did the trick.

In my case, I suppose that the font was missing or was not accessible by Xymon anymore.
