Thanks for the help. You definately hit the nail on the head. The machine is running an X server but has no graphics card. Like you said I either needed to install a graphics card on the machine running Solaris, install software that makes a virtual X server (Xvfb) or switch from Java 1.3 to Java 1.4 and run in "headless" mode. There were too many admin issues to implement the first two. The easiest solution was to switch Java versions and use the headless switch. That solved the problem. Thanks again. -jw ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
