Hello, I'm actually struggling with the similar problem. I applied Your script into mine like this: - library(Rdbi) library(RdbiPgSQL) conn <- dbConnect(PgSQL(), host="localhost", dbname="BVS", user="postgres", password = "******") query_duj_kal <- dbSendQuery(conn, "select zdroj as well, cas as date, fe2, fe3, mn, nh4, no2, no3, o2, teplota as temperature from analystats where zdroj like 'Dunaj Kalinkovo' order by date") watchem_duj_kal <- dbGetResult(query_duj_kal) date <- (watchem_duj_kal$date) date_p <- strptime(date, "%m-%d-%Y") no3 <- (watchem_duj_kal$no3) nh4 <- (watchem_duj_kal$nh4) par(mfrow=c(3,1), ylog = TRUE, yaxp = c(0.01, 100, 3)) maxy <- 100 miny <- 0.005 plot(date_p, no3,log = "y", type = "l", ylim = c(miny, maxy), col = "darkred", main = "Dunaj Kalinkovo", xlab = "time", ylab = "log(NO3-,NH4 +)", xaxt="n") axis.Date(1, at=seq(as.Date("1972-01-01"),max(as.Date(date_p))), "years"), labels = FALSE, tcl = -0.2) axis.Date(1, at=seq(as.Date("1970-01-01"),max(as.Date(date_p))), "5 years"), labels = TRUE, las=3, tcl = -0.2) - Everything goes well, except that I cannot get no tickles nor labels at the moment and I cannot find what I did wrong.
