CFMX "The Graphing service is not available" - solved

I've just completed setting up a new ColdFusion server on Ubuntu Server (I know it's not a supported config) and ran into the following problem when I went to the admin page:

The Graphing service is not available

A bit of googling turned up this Technote from Adobe which mentioned the same problem on RedHat Linux.

The redhat solution is also documented on Talking Tree but it doesn't cover Ubuntu.

For Ubuntu it's very simple - you need to install 3 libraries and you are good to go - one single line.

sudo apt-get install libXp6 libXt6 libXtst6

This will install a dozen or so packages - then restart ColdFusion and you have a shiny working install.

Cheers, Mark Lynch
