Error displaying Chart Data from Excel source

[Jodie Miners]

Hi, I'm having a weird error trying to display some chart data from an Excel source.

My markup is this

{chart:type=timeSeries|dateFormat=MM/yyyy|timePeriod=Month| dataOrientation=vertical}

{excel:file=MyFile.xls|columnTypes=D,I}

{chart}

The exact same data just placed in a table format within the chart macro does not produce this error at all.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

There is a reference to a bug in the old Chart Plugin https://studio.plugins.atlassian.com/browse/CHRT-77 but I can't find a bug listed in CONF since the chart macro has been taken over by Atlassian now.

Ignore me, it must have been something to do with an additional column in the data.

I now have

{chart:type=timeSeries|dataOrientation=vertical|dateFormat=MM-yyyy|timePeriod=Month|columns=1,2|domainaxisrotateticklabel=true|DateTickMarkPosition=start}
{excel:file=MyFile.xls}
{chart}

And it works fine
