I'm using Jfreechart for creating charts. I'm creating BufferedImage of chart and writing it in OutputStream.
It's working fine with display environment, but its Not working In headless environment.
Please help how do you make it work in such an environment.
Exception I got in log:
SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet [appServlet] in context with path [/WebAdmin] threw exception [Handler processing failed; nested exception is java.lang.InternalError: Can't connect to X11 window server using ':0.0' as the value of the DISPLAY variable.] with root cause
java.lang.InternalError: Can't connect to X11 window server using ':0.0' as the value of the DISPLAY variable.

Thank you for your reply.
You most likely want to invoke your Java program in headless mode:
java -Djava.awt.headless=true -cp ... come.your.Class
Alternatively, at runtime before any graphics code (e.g. in a static {} block):
System.setProperty("java.awt.headless", "true");
