Hi,

I have a Drupal site where I wanted to display a Flot graph. My original method was by installing the "Ignite Drupal" module, which turned Drupal into a CodeIgniter MVC. Using this module, I created a class that generated the Flot graph. I have now switched to using Drupal's Flot module. With the CodeIgniter Flot graph still on my page, I loaded the Drupal Flot module and was able to successfully see the graph. I then disabled the "Ignite Drupal" module and now the graph no longer loads (just empty whitespace). The error from the log is "File does not exist: /srv/www-ssl/htdocs/sites/all/modules/flot/flot"

I made the following attempts to fix it:

  • Comment out the form api element corresponding to the CodeIgniter Flot graph.

    • Outcome: "File does not exist: /srv/www-ssl/htdocs/sites/all/modules/flot/flot"

  • Copy flot.module to flot inside /srv/www-ssl/htdocs/sites/all/modules/flot (just to see what would happen)

    • Outcome:I then received this error "/srv/www-ssl/htdocs/sites/all/modules/flot/flot/jquery.flot.js"

  • Uninstalled my website's module, Ignite Drupal, and Drupal's Flot. Then installed only Drupal's Flot.

    • Outcome:Same error: "File does not exist: /srv/www-ssl/htdocs/sites/all/modules/flot/flot"

It seems that the Drupal Flot graphs will show only if the Flot graph from CodeIgniter is also displayed (because if I comment out the form element, then the Drupal Flot graph gives an error). Is there some dependency or conflict here?

Someone pointed me to the README in the 6.x release, which was not included in the 7.x dev tar file. I have fixed it.

Just to add that adding it to libraries is legit, but not reflected in the README.

3. Extract it as a sub-directory called 'flot' in the flot module folder. For
example:

 /sites/all/modules/flot/flot/

or

 /sites/all/libraries/flot
