    Hello Experts,

    We are having issues while installing Release Automation 6.5 on RHEL 7.4 which is "HeadLess" server no UI/Display . When we try to run the ./nolio_server_linux-x64_6_5_0_b10007.sh -c we get following error message.

    We have tried with ROOT and other accounts issue remain the same. Has any one enctouner this issue before , what was the root cause , any input would be appreciated.

    Hi Sachin

    Verify the JRE installed on the server, check if multiple Java is installed on the box, try to keep current Java  PATH string and reinstall.

    Hi Experts,

     

    I managed to found the fix for this issue. Root cause for this issue missing the font library on the server.

    After installing the required font package issue has been resolved. Run the below command on the required servers.

    yum install dejavu-serif-fonts

      Thank You
