Nongui needs a display ?

[Jose montiel <jm...@manduca.com>]

Hi,

   I have search through the list archive and I haven founf nothing about this so.

   I'm runnign JMeter in nongui mode in a Sun box running Solaris 8 (it is a remote Server), but in order to make it works, I have to set environment variable DISPLAY to point my box (local). If i don't set this variable I get the following error

  root@manduca3:/app/stressTest/jakarta-jmeter  ./bin/jmeter -n -t TestPlan-Static-1.jmx
  Created the tree successfully
  Starting the test
  Running the test!
  X connection to manduca3:12.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).

So my questions are :

     * if it is a nongui mode why it requires a graphic display?.
     * My connection to the server running JMeter is kind of slow, could it affect the results?

Thanks

Check if your local machine really allows X connections
(xhost +SERVERNAME, start an xterm or similar on server).

I guess the reason that JMeter needs an X connection here is that
some heavywheight java gui class is instantiated though
never really displayed ...

CU,
Marcel

I'm assuming you're running JMeter 1.7.  This version is dependent on GUI code, 
even in non-gui mode.  This should be fixed in 1.7.1 and 1.7.2 (I would be very 
interested in hearing about it if you try these versions).  

A slow connection to the server JMeter is testing could affect test results - it would 
depend on how much data is being sent.
