Plots.jl Example Does Not Work

[chetWS]

Hello,

I installed the latest version of Julia and Pluto:

julia> versioninfo()
Julia Version 1.8.0
Commit 5544a0fab7 (2022-08-17 13:38 UTC)
Platform Info:
OS: Windows (x86_64-w64-mingw32)
CPU: 4 × Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU 530 @ 2.93GHz
WORD_SIZE: 64
LIBM: libopenlibm
LLVM: libLLVM-13.0.1 (ORCJIT, westmere)
Threads: 1 on 4 virtual cores

Then I open up Pluto and scroll down to the Getting Started example programs that are on the home screen. I click on Plots.jl which says that it's "an introduction to Plots.jl". When I try to run it on this computer running Windows 10, it craps out giving the following long error message. For what it's worth, I get the same exact error message with the same version of Julia on a laptop running Windows 11.

Error message when trying to run the Plots.jl example in the Getting started section of the homescreen:

julia> using Pluto

julia> Pluto.run()

Thank you for reporting an issue about Pluto! Let's get it fixed!

To report an issue, you need two things:

1. 📹 A video recording demonstrating the problem. (You can drag a video file into this box)
2. 📝 A short Pluto notebook file. (Upload the notebook file to https://gist.github.com/ and include the link.)
3. 🤕 Try to clearly explain what the problem is, it might not be obvious to others! Instead of saying: "This does not work.", try to say: "I expected ..., but instead I am seeing ..."

🙋 But my issue is really simple, I don't want to make a screen recording / notebook!

Please do it anyways! It is really difficult to know exactly what information we will need to solve the issue, and a video recording can save a lot of follow-up questions.
Similarly, a notebook file means that we can start testing the problem immediately, saving Pluto's developers a lot of time.

---

How do I make a video recording?

On Windows, some options:

• The built-in "Game bar" recorder: https://www.howtogeek.com/706124/how-to-use-windows-10s-built-in-screen-capture-tool/
• ScreenToGif (Open source, free) https://www.screentogif.com/
• More options available online

On MacOS: press Cmd+Shift+5, see https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/mh26782/mac

On Linux: see some options in https://web.archive.org/web/20211123192630/https://www.linuxuprising.com/2020/01/4-tools-to-record-your-linux-desktop.html

If your video file is too large to upload to github, upload it to youtube and include the link.
