Cockpit menu not working properly / Dataset not in the list

Question

Hello,
Finally, after several bugs I have managed to install Knowage version 6.1.1 on debian Linux 8. The installation is set up with MariaDb as DBMS.
I have successfully created datasources and datasets, but when I try to create a cockpit I see that the menu is not working.
The icons are not displaying correctly. They are displayed empty boxs.
Even with this constraint I tried to progress and once I try to add a widget there is no dataset in the list.
Can you please guide me in order to solve this issue?

Application server? Have you set up the host_url and service_url properly?

Hello, 

The application server is Tomcat ( the instance that comes with Knowage)

The configuration of the host_url and server_url, on the file conf/server.xml are :

<Environment name="service_url" type="java.lang.String" value="http://localhost:8080/knowage"/>
 <Environment name="host_url" type="java.lang.String" value="http://the-ip_of _server:8080"/>

Here is a screen shot of the current view when I want to create a cockpit:

You should see errors in you web console. The problem can be related to a wrong setting about hostname and so.

Please attach the errors that I can see in your Chrome Web Console.

Hello,

Finally I found a solution.  The probleme was due to the fact that when accessing knowage I was using: http://server_name:8080/knowage/ and not the Ip address.

So I changed the configuration on the server_url  in order to point on the server name.

<Environment name="host_url" type="java.lang.String" value="http://server_name:8080"/>

Thank you for your prompt replies
