Hello, I am an IT administrator who installed Jamovi 2.2.5 in Microsoft Azure Virtual desktop for a professor. We have noticed that the Plots are taking a very long time to load (10 minutes +).
It appears to be a permission issue because when I log into the host as an administrator user the plot comes up immediately. Do you know what permissions are needed on which folders?
Thanks

Plots taking a long time to load
Re: Plots taking a long time to load
hi,
so jamovi asks windows for a temporary folder, and then all the session info, plots, etc. are read/written to that location.
does it sit there with a loading indicator, or are the plots simply blank?
we have the option to start jamovi with debug mode (you'll find it in the start menu) ... if you start it with
jamovi --debug
it should make the R process windows visible, and there might be some error messages there which could point us in the right direction.

Hello Jonathon,
The load indicator is there, it just spins for 10+ minutes and when I run debut I get this....

Re: Plots taking a long time to load
ah, so i'm wondering if you're getting "no results", rather than "no plots". most (all?) analyses produce a series of tables, that may or may not include plots -- but i'm guessing you might be getting "no results".
this suggests the communications between the main server process, and the background engine processes may be being blocked. this communication relies on named ipc channels.
https://github.com/jamovi/jamovi/blob/current-dev/server/jamovi/server/enginemanager.py#L40-L44
let us know if that looks to be the issue.
cheers

Re: Plots taking a long time to load
Sorry, I forgot to mention that I am getting results after the 10+ minute wait.

Re: Plots taking a long time to load
hmm ... that is very unusual behaviour ... when it comes to permissions issues, we expect it to either work, or not work ... not just be delayed by 10 minutes ... so it feels like it can't be a permissions issue.
but there's not really any other sort of issue that involves a 10 minute delay either! so i'm inclined to think permissions are probably it.
are there any permissions set that might affect named pipe ipc?

Re: Plots taking a long time to load
I am as stumped as you are on this....
I am going to try and deploy an "out of the box" windows 10 deployment and see what happens.

Re: Plots taking a long time to load
The fresh "clean" build of windows 10 took a little over two minutes for the graph to be displayed.
That is better than 10+ minutes but still not acceptable. I will dig into it a little bit more and I will post my findings here (if any).

Re: Plots taking a long time to load
thanks. very strange ... we've never heard of this happening before.
so do results appear straight away (tables, etc.) and it's only plots that take time to load?
