[Jalview-discuss] Jalview install problems

[Jim Procter]

Hello Xiaoyu.

It sounds like you are installing on a unix or linux box, and the 
Flexera installAnywhere system cannot find any X libraries on your 
system. This could be because you have logged in to a non-X enabled 
console (try starting an xterm and see if that works) or that you have 
configured your machine purely as a server, i.e. X is not installed.

When running Jalview in headless mode it still has some dependencies on 
the Java GUI implementation to access fonts and other graphical 
resources, so even if you want to run it in batch mode only, you'll 
still need to have a basic X install.

Hope this helps
Jim.
