remote tcpmon and HeadlessException
Hi all,
I'm trying to run tcpmon remotely. I'm using X11 forwarding over ssh. X11 is
working fine - I can type 'xclock' on the remote machine and it works.
However, I get this error:
/home/iksrazal/axis-1_3/lib> java -cp axis.jar -Djava.awt.headless=true
org.apache.axis.utils.tcpmon 8090 localhost 9081
java.awt.HeadlessException

at org.apache.axis.utils.tcpmon.<init>(tcpmon.java:1861)
at org.apache.axis.utils.tcpmon.main(tcpmon.java:1900)
As you can see I've tried java.awt.headless=true . Any ideas?

Don't use headless when forwarding over SSH. You *do* have a head, it's
just remote.

- What error do you get when you *don't* use -Djava.awt.headless=true ?
- What is your DISPLAY environment variable set to?
If your DISPLAY variable isn't set, you might need to either use -X when
ssh'ing into the box, or modify your sshd_config and set X11Forwarding yes.
Some SSH servers don't allow X11 forwarding by default.

Re: remote tcpmon and HeadlessException

Just to address your curiosity - X11 is a protocol. Its completely capable of
running a keyboard and a display remotely - much I suppose like Windows
terminal server (never used it). xclock most certainly needs X11 - runlevel 3
in front of the keyboard (locally) in any type of unix for example won't be
able to run xclock. (Will give 'Error, can't open display' ) . Or with
KDE/Gnome and the like you can type ctrl-alt-F1 and you'll get a shell with
X11, which also can't run xclock. X11/ssh allows programs that need a GUI to
be invoked remotely.
A good example of running a java awt/swing program remotely is JMeter - as you
don't want the program affecting performace testing. That works over X11/ssh
just fine.
With that out of the way, any help highly appreciated.

from the JavaDocs
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/awt/HeadlessException.html it
sounds like a headless system should have no display or UI components
whatsoever ("Thrown when code that is dependent on a keyboard, display, or
mouse is called in an environment that does not support a keyboard, display,
or mouse"). i'm curious how tcpmon could possibly work without display....
also i thought if something like 'xclock' works then you wouldn't have to run
in headless mode... ??
