Issue with plotting

General Usage
1

I am trying to plot some values.

So I imported plotlyjs:

using Plots
plotlyjs()

I am getting:

Any help please? Thanks!

It looks like you don’t have a sufficient development environment. For example, on Ubuntu/Debian etc., you may install the “build-essentials” package to get a good foundation. For other operating system distributions, check your system documentation.

Hi,
Thanks for replying. Do you mean:

Pkg.add("build-essentials")

I am getting:

I am on Linux Mint 19 and using IJulia

No, it’s an operating system package which insures the installation of the C compiler and some support. (You’ve got a compiler, but not the support.)

Thanks a lot!

While updating it shows:

build-essential is already the newest version (12.4ubuntu1).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 15 not upgraded.

Could it be this issue?

In that case it could be fixed by running apt-get install make gcc in a terminal (EDIT: though if this was the issue build-essentials should already provide everything you need).

Slightly tangentially, even though it could potentially be a fair amount of work, several packages (Blink, Juno, PlotlyJS, …) would probably be easier to install if if they relied on HTTP.jl (no binary dependency) rather than on HTTPParser: not sure if they’re planning to transition though.
