Hi, I'm trying to get Mauve Contig Mover (MCM) to run from the command line using the following infrastructure and command:
Infrastructure: mauve_2.3.1 on an x86 64bit linux server (X11 enabled), accessed via an SSH client from a windows desktop. Command: java -Xmx500m -cp ~/bin/mauve_2.3.1/Mauve.jar org.gel.mauve.contigs.ContigOrderer -output 3kb_20_reordered -ref H063920004_ref_genome.gbk -draft 3kb_20_k41_final.scaffolds.fasta Initially there was an X11 error "No X11 DISPLAY variable was set, but this program performed an operation which requires it.". So I switched to a different SSH client that allows X11 forwarding and got "Can't connect to X11 window server using 'localhost:10.0' as the value of the DISPLAY variable." We solved this by installing Xming (a windows X server http://www.straightrunning.com/XmingNotes/) on the desktop PC and now MCM runs as expected. It looks like MCM is trying to initiate a graphical process even though it's run from the command line... So what's the problem?... We want to run MCM as part of a pipeline of tools served through an online interface. Requiring the integration of X servers on user desktops is obviously a show stopper. Questions: Should MCM be invoking a graphical component when run from the command line? Is there any way of preventing it?
