This config yields no display in the ‘Analysis’ view:  
cylc-flow-8.4.1  
cylc-uiserver-1.6.1  
python-3.9.21

I have an older config on a different machine, that works:  
cylc-flow-8.2.4  
cylc-uiserver-1.4.1  
python-3.9.18

I’m happy to scour the logs for clues, if someone tells me what to look for.

Hi @ejhyer

With the exact same versions (including Python) installed from conda forge, the Analysis tab is working fine for me.

Note that (in case it’s not obvious):

- the 3 analysis views don’t update automatically, you have to hit “Refresh data”
- in the Time Series view you have to select some tasks (via the dropdown) before it shows anything

If that doesn’t help we’ll have to investigate further. Perhaps try it with a relatively simple test workflow too.

If it still doesn’t work:

- Try opening the “web developer console” to see if there is any red text in there.
- If not, try looking at the `~/.cylc/uiserver/log/*` files to see if there are any Python tracebacks.
