In 5.5.1115 on Ubuntu the CM93 charts do not display. They are found but no graphics are shown. Other charts seem to be OK. Rebuilding the database does not include them.

Re: charts missing on opencpn 5.2.4

For info and comparison:
On my RPi4,Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster), using 5.5.1115 both oeSENC and CM93 charts are viewed as usual.
Now it may be a difference since my installation is built from source and thus natively fitted for the actual OS?

More info:

I removed the OpenCPN build from source and instead used the 5.5.1115 installed by OpenPlotter: OpenCPN installer.
Both oeSENC and CM93 are still nicely shown.

I don't know how to rebuild the charts. The GPS is showing an acceptable Signal K going to OpenCPN.......and the world map background is there......but there are no nav charts available. How do I fix this?

Re: charts missing on opencpn 5.2.4

Options|Charts|Chart Files --> Force Full Database Rebuild Enable, Apply


If there are issues you can scan through the OCPN log file ("About", the "?" button)

Re: charts missing on opencpn 5.2.4

Which charts do you want to install?
- US ENC?
Running those do not require any plug-in.


If you want help to install them, then you can use theChartDowloaderPlugin --> Options|Charts|ChartDownloader


Please explain with more details.

Update: Upgraded to 5.5.1116 today (Ubuntu update) but no change. I notice in Options > Charts > Vector Chart Display, everything under "User Standard Objects" is greyed out. Might be a clue?

Subtandard....
Are you using OpenGL?
If so, please try with OpenGL turned off.
Settings->Display->Advanced.


Thanks
