Hi all, I ran into this (simple) problem on my Fedora Core 4/5 boxes and just wanted to post a solution for those with similar problems.
The error that jmeter throws is: > # ./jmeter > java.awt.HeadlessException: > No X11 DISPLAY variable was set, but this program performed an > operation which requires it. > at > java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment.checkHeadless(GraphicsEnvironment.java:159) > at java.awt.Window.<init>(Window.java:317) > at java.awt.Frame.<init>(Frame.java:419) > at java.awt.Frame.<init>(Frame.java:384) > at javax.swing.JFrame.<init>(JFrame.java:150) > at org.apache.jmeter.gui.MainFrame.<init>(MainFrame.java:117) > at org.apache.jmeter.JMeter.startGui(JMeter.java:197) > at org.apache.jmeter.JMeter.start(JMeter.java:265) > at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) > at > sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.j > av > a:39) > at > sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccess > or > Impl.java:25) > at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:585) > at org.apache.jmeter.NewDriver.main(NewDriver.java:162) > An error occurred: > No X11 DISPLAY variable was set, but this program performed an > operation which requires it. To set the DISPLAY variable enter the following lines. If you do not use the standard X-Window output please change the localhost:0 part. This is for bash shell: # DISPLAY=localhost:0 # export DISPLAY Cheers Oliver P.S. You have to set this even on machines with no X-Windows installed! Jmeter needs this even when running in server mode.
