Dear Developers of Matplotlib,
at first thanks for this mightiest tool for graphical output from python data. I have encountered problems on trying the watermark feature as described at http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/api/watermark_image.html.
When I invoke the script from a Enthought Python Compiler in the Windows COM then I got this message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "Fluide\script1.py", line 13, in <module>
datafile = cbook.get_sample_data('logo.png', asfileobj=False)
File "D:\Programme\Enthought\lib\site-packages\matplotlib-1.0.1_r0-py2.6-win32.egg\matplotlib\cbook.py", line 676, in get_sample_data
return myserver.get_sample_data(fname, asfileobj=asfileobj)
File "D:\Programme\Enthought\lib\site-packages\matplotlib-1.0.1_r0-py2.6-win32.egg\matplotlib\cbook.py", line 623, in get_sample_data
raise KeyError(msg)
KeyError: 'file iselogo.png not in cache; received <urlopen error [Errno 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it> when trying to retrieve'
Does anyone no a solution for this problem? Image is in the same directory as the script. Or if now I switched to it by os.chdir to the specific path.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Kindly regards,
Thore Oltersdorf
matplotlib.cbook documentation :
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/cbook_api.html?highlight=matplotlib.cbook#matplotlib.cbook.get_sample_data
matplotlib.cbook.``get_sample_data(fname, asfileobj=True)¶
Check the cachedirectory ~/.matplotlib/sample_data for a sample_data file. If it does not exist, fetch it with urllib from the mpl svn repo
http://matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/matplotlib/trunk/sample_data/
and store it in the cachedir.
If asfileobj is True, a file object will be returned. Else the path to the file as a string will be returned
To add a datafile to this directory, you need to check out sample_data from matplotlib svn:
svn co https://matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/matplotlib/trunk/sample_data
and svn add the data file you want to support. This is primarily intended for use in mpl examples that need custom data.
To bypass all downloading, set the rc parameter examples.download to False and examples.directory to the directory where we should look.
So, you have to have the logo.png image in the home/matplotlib/sample_data. If it is not present there, the script will try to download it from the server.

Dear Thomas.
Thanks again for your reply.
I have tried your solution of putting the logo-file into
the folder %HOME% on my Windows system. Actually what happened
is that after invocation of the script the file vanished into the nowhere...
I couldn't see any change in the error output otherwise I would post it here.
Kindly regards,
Thore
PS: Thanks for your hint regarding the multiple post. It was
a stupid mistake and I promise it will never happen again. Sorry again to all annoyed readers.
