[jCharts-users] ChartProperties cp = new ChartProperties() throws exception (Unix)

[Steven M S. <sms...@us...>]

Hi,
I have an example program which outputs a small LineChart as  a *.jpg file.
It works well.  :-)  On Windows and Unix.

However, when I run the program on a Unix system under  cron  (which runs
commands and shell scripts at predetermined times without having to be
logged on)  I get a "Cannot connect to X11 window server" exception  early
in the program, at
  ChartProperties chartProperties = new ChartProperties();

This is very repeatable.   I am Using Sun Solaris 7 ,  Java Version 1.3.1,
and jCharts 0.7.4.

Any ideas?   Being able to run charts on a disconnected machine with no
console
is a requirement for my application.
I can append the source code for my program here if needed.  And it's very
similar to
of one of the jCharts examples provided in the documentation.
