Jalview install problems

Hi,

I’m installing Jalview, but it pops out an error said " Installer User Interface Mode Not Supported". I added the option “-i Console” as it suggested, but it still doesn’t work. Does anybody know how could I fix the problem?

Thank you very much,
Xiaoyu

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.
