I am using Linux server to set up a django project. I got this error: \"Failed to create /var/www/.matplotlib; consider setting MPLCONFIGDIR to a writable directory for matp
Set the MPLCONFIGDIR in code before you import matplotlib. Make sure the directory has permissions such that it can be written to by the app.
import os
os.environ['MPLCONFIGDIR'] = "/home/lab/website/graph"
import matplotlib
Alternatively, you could set it to a tempfile.
import os
import tempfile
os.environ['MPLCONFIGDIR'] = tempfile.mkdtemp()
import matplotlib
