Problems with Grafana 7.5.2

[amotl]

Hi there,

at https://github.com/Safecast/safecastapi/issues/795, @matschaffer reported about problems with this map panel on Grafana 7.5.2. When the display should happen, it now says Error loading: grafana-map-panel.

I would like to gather more information about that.

Recently, we upgraded to Grafana 7.4 [1] and have not been able to detect any problems so far. However, we are mainly using InfluxDB. So, I would like to investigate whether there is something specifically to Grafana 7.5 (vs. 7.4) or if the problem might originate from the matter of using Elasticsearch as a data source.

With kind regards, Andreas.

@matschaffer and @robouden: Maybe there is something on the JavaScript console which might give us a clue about the origin of the problem. If so, can you share the relevant output here?

Thanks for the issue! I’m going to have to reproduce it first. I’d originally tried the upgrade on our main site so had to roll back quickly.

You are welcome and take your time. I will start investigating afterwards.

Sure. May I ask to which version you rolled back? 6.x?

7.5.1 - so must be something very recent causing the break. It could be the elasticsearch data source even. There have been folks working on that lately.

Oh, then this is pretty obvious. This information is important, thank you.

All right, good to know. So either the downstream components (like this plugin) will have to adjust, or, alternatively, we should watch out for eventual fixes on that that would probably go into another bugfix release 7.5.3 then.

The release notes for Grafana 7.5.2 look pretty much innocent from my perspective, but you never know.

Maybe https://github.com/grafana/grafana/pull/32290 is related?

The other update on ES I found happening between 7.5.1 and 7.5.2 was https://github.com/grafana/grafana/pull/32282. However, @Elfo404 said about this:

I tested this using Elasticsearch 2 as well as 7 (from our devenv) and it seems to work for both of them.

[matschaffer]

Seems fine now. Must have just been something with my connection. Sorry for the noise @amotl - I'd say you can close this.

Thank you for reporting back about this, Mat. I am happy that this plugin is still compatible with the most recent Grafana 7.x release.
