I ssh into a remote machine and start an agent.
At this point everything runs OK because ssh is set up to do X forwarding, so any process that needs an X server can use my local machine.
I then put the agent process into the background and log out of my remote session. The agent can no longer connect to my X server on my local machine.
Now I get an error whenever I try to run an Inspections build. I attach the log.
Looks the same as TW-773
Environment: RH Linux on headless machine

Can you start up the agent with the argument:
-Djava.awt.headless=true
to fix this?
Other possibility, you can run Xvfb, which is a virtual frame buffer. We run it with:
/usr/X11R6/bin/Xvfb :0 -screen 0 1600x1024x16
and have a display to point to at :0.

The -Djava.awt.headless=true doesn't work because the agent is looking for a display (unfortunately).
I'll try and find Xvfb and give it a go.

It seems that running the inspection "needs" to have a proper display, since I am prompted to give a value for my path variables (output directory is defined as a path variable in my module definitions).
Inspections should be able to run completely headlessly - if it needs path variables and they haven't been defined in the build configuration it should just crash giving the name of the variable to define. In my case it's doubly annoying because the output directory is specified as part of the build.

24 months ago (27 Sep 2006 15:52)This is a bug in jdk. It creates toolkit and after that checks if it is headless environment. We need to instantiate our event queue thus we need default toolkit. We will do our best to provide a workaround but not in IDEA 6.0 unfortunately.
Sorry for inconvenience.
Thank you.
