20000328: GEMPAK GEMPLT Error
- Subject: 20000328: GEMPAK GEMPLT Error
- Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2000 11:05:09 -0700
Wanhon,
If you are running a script, make sure that the DISPLAY environmental
variable is defined, since running scripts from cron does not inherit
your environmental varibles by default.
If you are using Xvfb as the server for your gifs to display to from
cron execution, make sure that that display is defined as 8 bits, and
that you have specified the correct DISPLAY...typically hostname:1.
If the script is trying to display to the console, then it would need
permission to do so.
