pie chart plugin not working

[mukeshchhotmail]

Facing problem with the latest plugin 1.6.0.
Tried installing / uninstalling the plugin several times. Restart the Service and also the server. It still keeps showing the error message for the pie chart plugin.
Any suggestions?
The installation seems to complete fine:

root@DNS:/home/mukesh# grafana-cli plugins install grafana-piechart-panel 1.6.0 --debug
getting plugin metadata from: https://grafana.com/api/plugins pluginId: grafana-piechart-panel
installing grafana-piechart-panel @ 1.6.0
from: https://grafana.com/api/plugins/grafana-piechart-panel/versions/1.6.0/download
into: /var/lib/grafana/plugins

Extracting archive /tmp/458214298.zip to /var/lib/grafana/plugins...
✔ Installed grafana-piechart-panel successfully

Restart grafana after installing plugins .

root@DNS:/home/mukesh# service grafana-server restart

For that matter none of the plugins are installing, even though the status says that they have been installed. Regards, Mukesh

Check /etc/grafana/grafana.ini and ensure you haven't set a custom plugin location.
It should say plugins = /var/lib/grafana/plugins, though it may be commented out which should be fine, as long as it's not set to something else.

Had the same issue.
Plugin folder was correct as I sawin the logs. But still no plugin registration during service start.
My fault was to remote copy another plugin from another server but without the folder. So it ended up with the plugin files in the plugin folder. It registered the wrong copied plugin but not the others (like pie chart) in the correct folder.

What worked: I removed everything from the plugin folder and installed the plugins again.
Seems like I messed up the grafana plugin loader with my plugin files in the parent folder.
