Exception on connect to X11 window when run

2002-09-30 12:52

Hi,

 

When running a jasper report from unix server, an Exception is thrown: java.lang.InternalError: Can't connect to X11 window server using 'localhost:0' as the value of the DISPLAY variable

 

This is because in JRBaseFiller.java and some other few java modules using a reference of java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment. This is required an active X Window running. Since we plan to run the reports on production server, then keep an active X Window running is not a good idea. Any suggestions to bypass this situation?

 

Thanks a lot
