Why do i need an X Server Running?

If i set the IMAGES_URI to a static image, why do i still need an X Server running to generate a HTML report?

 

What other image(s) are being created underneath?

I tracked it down to this call in JRBaseFiller:

 

static {

GraphicsEnvironment gEnv = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();

String envfonts[] = gEnv.getAvailableFontFamilyNames();

}

 

This code is not being used by anything as far as i can tell. Any ideas?

There are more places than that... :(

 

Can you guys add something to the requirements page? You can just ape it from my projects site:

 

http://jcharts.sourceforge.net/userGuide/exportingImages.html

 

under the "Images With No X Server" section

You might try -Djava.awt.headless=true when starting your jvm. I was able to run jasperreports on a headless server without this, but eventually a NoClassDefFound error started recurring.
