jasper reports - Getting java.awt.HeadlessException on running JasperViewer.viewReport(JasperPrint) method

Question

I'm getting the error with this code running on Ubuntu 11:

JasperReport jasperReport = JasperCompileManager.compileReport("/resources/etiquetas/etiquetaEndereco.jrxml");
JasperPrint print = JasperFillManager.fillReport(jasperReport, parametros);
JasperViewer.viewReport(print);

Stack:

GRAVE: java.awt.HeadlessException

I don't find solution for this error.

Answer 1

As Java documentation shows, java.awt.HeadlessException is:

Thrown when code that is dependent on a keyboard, display, or mouse is called in an environment that does not support a keyboard, display, or mouse.

(Source)

and, for java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment:

The GraphicsEnvironment class describes the collection of GraphicsDevice objects and Font objects available to a Java(tm) application on a particular platform.

(Source)

Check if your report source file (etiquetaEndereco.jrxml) is calling fonts that could not be installed on your system.
