spoon.sh doesn't open up for Linux

In Pentaho, spoon.sh doesn't execute properly and gives these errors.

I am trying to execute spoon.sh from putty and I have a Ubuntu Linux server running on cloud?

How to overcome these errors?

Solution

  • spoon is a GUI interface and you can-not open spoon in non-GUI(like putty).

    if you want to run the transformation or job you created in ubuntu linux server then execute using kitchen.sh or pan.sh.
