Problem
...
This behavior was observed only on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 (SLES15) with Service Pack 4. |
Problem
You may encounter an issue where the characters in their your Checkmk service graphs appear incorrect and are displayed as follows:
This issue occurs due to the fonts located in the /usr/share/ directory of both openSUSE and SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLE) distributions. . This is caused by the default font pack that SLES15 SP4 uses.
Solution
To resolve this, you can execute the following commands either as a normal Linux user or as root:
Stop the site
Code Block language bash theme RDark
...
root@mylinuxhost# omd stop
...
<mysite>.
Change directory to /usr/share/
Code Block language bash theme RDark root@mylinuxhost# cd /usr/share/
.
Create a backup of the original fonts file
Code Block language bash theme RDark root@mylinuxhost:/usr/share#
...
mv fonts fonts.bak
...
.
Install zypper
Code Block language bash theme RDark root@mylinuxhost:/usr/share# zypper install -f google-opensans-fonts
...
.
Start the site
Code Block language bash theme RDark root@mylinuxhost:/usr/share# omd start
...
<mysite>.
After the Checkmk site has been restarted, the service graphs should display as expected.
