[opencms-dev] Problem with installation

Sorry; out of ideas.  But if you're not planning on using the <cms:img> tag
for a while - it's hardly vital - you could carry on until some helpful soul
provides the right answer.

Thanks for the reply.  Yes I am using tomcat and jdk 1.5.

I added this to the top of my /opt/tomcat/bin/startup.sh file
JAVA_COMMAND -Djava.awt.headless=true

I restarted tomcat and this did NOT work.

You need to make sure that the Java process running your web container
(Tomcat?) is started with the parameter java.awt.headless=true, which means
that when certain image processing operations are carried out (e.g. dynamic
resizing of images returned to the browser) it won't try to initialise a
display environment.
 
If you were invoking Java directly, you could just supply the parameter on
the command line using the -D argument.  But since you're probably using a
script to run Tomcat (or whatever) you can achieve the same thing by
specifying an environment variable.  Here's where I stop being helpful - I
can't remember the right form to use!  Try setting a variable named
java.awt.headless    to the value   true   - it might be as simple as that.

On step two I am getting the error
Image Processing: failed!

Your system uses components which have not been tested to work with Alkacon
OpenCms. It is possible that OpenCms will not run on your system. 

-Djava.awt.headless=true JVM parameter or X-Server may be missing.
You can continue the setup, but image processing will be disabled.

Can someone please help me resolve.
