Dashboard Not Loading Properly – Visualizations from Data Visualizer Not Displayed (DHIS2 v2.40.3)

Hello everyone,

I’m facing a problem with the dashboard module in DHIS2, and I would appreciate any insights or suggestions.

:wrench: Environment:

  • DHIS2 Version: 2.40.3
  • Dashboard App Version: 101.2
  • Data Visualizer App Version: 101.1

:white_check_mark: What works:

  • Maps (GIS visualizations) load correctly on the dashboard
  • Event report tables are displayed properly

:cross_mark: What doesn’t work:

  • Visualizations (charts and pivot tables) created using the Data Visualizer do not load on the dashboard.
  • The components stay in a loading loop (spinning circle) and never render.
  • This issue affects all standard users, but everything works fine when using a superuser account.

:magnifying_glass_tilted_left: Additional notes:

  • We created the visualizations in the same DHIS2 version (2.40.3)
  • The visualizations can be opened and viewed correctly via Analyze > Data Visualizer
  • Cache has been cleared; dashboard items reinserted; no improvement
  • We’ve tried changing sharing settings and recreating the favorites — the issue persists
  • Console in the browser does not show blocking errors related to the dashboard itself

Has anyone experienced a similar issue?
Is there a known compatibility or metadata sharing issue between the Dashboard and the Data Visualizer apps in version 2.40?

Thanks in advance for your support!

Best regards,
Christian Rakotondramanitra

Hi
Thank you for the detailed post. I think the issue might be related to changes in Dashboard sharing settings. Please check the release notes for version 2.40 and 2.41. Also, mentioned here: Dashboard saving - Error - After upgrade to 2.40.x - Any thing changed? - #2 by Gassim

I hope this helps. If you’re still facing an issue even after following the instructions in the release notes, please post the issue here again.

Thanks!
