Hi Albert, Thanks for the reply. I had JRE 1.5 and also used -Djava.awt.headless=true option without success.
Got this suggestion from a friend to run Xvfb and use the DISPLAY variable as below: #Start Xvfb (startup.sh) /usr/XVFB-/Xvfb :20 & #Set the DISPLAY var in catalina.sh export DISPLAY=localhost:20.0 The error is gone.

I've experienced this before. It seems that your server is running in a headless environment or without X or desktop libraries installed. Could be a init 3 in unix environment. In this case, if your JDK is >= 1.4.x, it's easy to solve. =) You just need to edit your catalina.sh Add this line if you havent got one, or edit it if you already have it : JAVA_OPTS=-Djava.awt.headless=true HTH, Albert Kam On Tue, Aug 26, 2008 at 12:09 PM, Jayaraman, Gopinath < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Everyone, > > I am having this typical issue which many have faced which is below: > > Graphics ENV testing has failed.
