Description jan p. springer 2015-11-14 17:32:54 UTC
Description of problem:

after a default installation of f23 server cockpit starts and can be connected to from a web browser in the same subnet. however the side tabs for displaying or manipulating 'System', 'Services', etc are all blank/empty. journalctl on the server does not show anything relevant (at least to my eye).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

cockpit-0.83-1.fc23.x86_64
cockpit-bridge-0.83-1.fc23.x86_64
cockpit-docker-0.83-1.fc23.x86_64
cockpit-networkmanager-0.83-1.fc23.noarch
cockpit-shell-0.83-1.fc23.noarch
cockpit-storaged-0.83-1.fc23.noarch
cockpit-ws-0.83-1.fc23.x86_64

How reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install f23 server
2. connect to <server-name>:9090
3. 

Actual results:

no information for 'System', 'Services', etc side tabs is shown

Expected results:

there should be information in the side tabs

Additional info:

the dashboard seems to work though

Could you attach:

 1. A screenshot
 2. Relevant logs from the journal: journalctl -b | grep cockpit

Comment 13 jan p. springer 2015-11-16 09:15:15 UTC
added system-log output and some screenshots. while looking at the screenshots i realized that the web interface is working, it's just that i can't scroll to the information. i also added the web-console output from firefox for that session. using google chrome 46 the web interface does work, so i have an alternative.

Comment 14 Stef Walter 2015-11-16 11:03:40 UTC
What OS is your browser running on? I can see that it's Firefox 42. It'd be interesting to duplicate this issue.

Comment 15 jan p. springer 2015-11-16 12:35:58 UTC
firefox-42.0-2.fc22.x86_64 on fedora 22

Comment 16 Stef Walter 2015-11-19 11:06:29 UTC
I can duplicate this. The reason is because Firefox has a window width that is not an even pixel width (in my case 892.5) and I can see this in the inspector. However in the javascript DOM it is reporting an even integer width (in my case 893).

This causes the iframe to overflow down below, as you can see in the screenshots.

I'll work on a fix for this.
