Adam, which linux distribution and version are you using to develop on? I am building a docker container to run this in so I can try to replicate your execution environment. The docker image uses a clean SVN checkout so i shouldn’t have any crud from previous checkouts. 

It could be something is stomping on the cli options after they have been displayed in the UI. The rendered image looks like what you would get in Light mode. I get the same result using Dark and Dark Blue mode. I might put in a wrapper around rrdtool to log what options are actually being passed in

 Well that's two of you.

I can't replicate this though, so I have no idea why it's happening.

If you both list everything relevant about your installs (versions, dark/light variant, etc), something might be obvious.

….. well… perhaps that’s a bit too far. :)
but at least i’m not the only person experiencing this rather odd behavior.

I am seeing a similar issue. I played around with changing the colors and no matter what I set, I always get the same transparent graph with black text regardless of what color options are set. However, when I run the command on the CLI I get an image that looks like what I would expect.  


Our set up is running on Ubuntu 20.04 with rrdtool 1.7.2, and

I have no idea then.

Theme "mode" is set in index.php:

    if (!isset($_SESSION['mode']) || $_SESSION['mode'] != $config['themes'][$_SESSION['theme']]['type']) {
        $_SESSION['mode'] = $config['themes'][$_SESSION['theme']]['type'];
    }

I can't see a lot of scope for that not to work, especially since no one else has really reported it.

Do you have any local modifications?

What does "svn status" show?

Hi Adam,

I'm referring to the datapoint name/value text in graphs, in case the descriptor 'legend' is being overloaded here and means something different to you, than to me ;)

see attached imagery for examples ;) 

is there something else I should check here? [yes, I know py2 is icky. working with tkl to get an updated observium appliance into their pipeline, as this one's somewhat old....



hope yer doing awesomely.

Howdy, all!


is there some voodoo necessary to coerce observium to generate graphs with textual legends that aren't black when dark mode is active? it's kinda hard to view black text on dark blue backgrounds :)

I don't see an obvious knob for this, but it's entirely possible I'm just missing the "legend text color" or "make graph text legible in dark mode" or "learn to read" button somewhere :)
