I'm trying to get a script to work in batch mode to produce a large number of
plots. I've got the following sequence of imports in a matplotlib Python
script:
import matplotlib, os, sys
...
if file_ext == 'png' :
sys.stderr.write('Using PNG output format\n')
matplotlib.use('agg')
elif file_ext == 'pdf' :
sys.stderr.write('Using PDF output format\n')
matplotlib.use('PDF')
from pylab import *
... remainder of plotting code ...
At first this appeared to work without any problems. I could kick off a job
in background, log off the machine and return later when all the graphs had
been produced.
Now I get this RuntimeError exception. Is there anything else I need to do
to convince matplotlib that it doesn't need my local display?
thanks!
