See here: http://root.cern.ch/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=15072 Unfortunately I can't glean a solution from those forum posts, other than "Don't use the macports one and built it yourself." -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/36004#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

When using this, you use the native OS X Quartx graphics, and not X11. In that case, the above link you provide is not really relevant at all. So which is it, are you using the cocoa variant or not ? Note that the cocoa variant is (very) experimental. If you are using it, and having issues, I suggest try running without it first and make sure everything works fine there first... The link also refers to OS X 10.8, whereas you said you where using 10.7. Which is it ? With 10.7, you could either be using the stock X11 provided by Apple, or Xquartz. With 10.8, Apple has removed their own X11, so XQuartz is the only option. I just tried myself using OS X 10.8 and Xcode 4.4.1, and I was not able to reproduce the issue discussed above, creating a new TCanvas using either X11 (XQuartz 2.7.3) or native OS X graphics.... what do you get if you run

echo $DISPLAY

at the command line ? If should look something line {{{ Chris-Jones-Macbook-Pro ~ > echo $DISPLAY /tmp/launch-B7yZDP/org.macosforge.xquartz:0 }}} Does it ? if you see anything like "localhost:0.0" then most likely you are incorrectly overriding your DISPLAY settings in one of your ~/.* config files which you should then remove. I personally only have 10.8 machines now, so if the issue is specific to 10.7, I'm not going to be able to reproduce it I'm afraid....

The link I provided was found on ROOT Talk as a potential solution, it was linked when I posted myself about this particular problem. It sounded like it was a potential solution that would go in the configuration part of the portfile or something. Indeed in their post they mention cocoa and 10.8, but I was not using them.

I am using 10.7.4 with XCode now 4.4.1. I am trying to use the port: root +python27 +fftw3, which builds but then seems to not work properly in the graphics department. echo $DISPLAY says: /tmp/launch-MeooNC/org.x:0 .

I also tried separately uninstalling and reinstalling with +cocoa. The $DISPLAY is the same, and the behavior is the same. The only "xquartz" that I have from macports is qt4-mac+quartz, but I don't have an actual quartz port.

I just installed XQuartz 2.7.3, logged out and in, uninstalled root, re- installed (with just +python27 and +fftw3). Now $DISPLAY is /tmp/launch- liKLue/org.macosforge.xquartz:0 and the behavior is the same. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/36004#comment:7> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

In MacPorts, for the root port the setting {{{ --etcdir=${prefix}/etc/root }}} is used. ${prefix} is your base MacPorts installation area. The default, which I use is /opt/local. So for me I see {{{ Chris-Jones-Macbook-Pro ~ > ls /opt/local/etc/root/ HistFactorySchema.dtd hostcert.conf svninfo.txt Makefile.arch html system.plugins-ios RadioNuclides.txt pdg_table.txt system.rootauthrc class.rules plugins system.rootdaemonrc cmake proof system.rootrc daemons root.desktop valgrind-root.supp gdb-backtrace.sh root.mimes vmc }}} Which seems fine.

I tried installing the binary version by not requesting variants. There was no build phase. The result is the same: TBrowser tb;, the object is created but there is no window. Same with TCanvas and TH1F and such. I also found this old suggestion from Rene Brun, which I tried to no avail: http://root.cern.ch/root/roottalk/roottalk03/1272.html I recompiled with +gcc45 (which was already installed on my system). Again the result is the same. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/36004#comment:11> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

Have you changed anything in your MacPorts setup ? For instance to change the target type (32/64 bits, universal etc.) ? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/36004#comment:13> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
