SikuliX

Not able to install sikulix 1.1.4 version in my Ubuntu16.04.5 machine in Azure

Asked by Punitha

I am using Ubuntu version 16.04.5 in Microsoft Azure environment. Please find the below details:
root@scb-test-7:/home/SikuliX# lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS
Release: 16.04
Codename: xenial

Mine is a 64-bit system

Java version:
root@scb-test-7:/home/SikuliX# /home/SikuliX/jdk-11.0.1/bin/java -version
openjdk version "11.0.1" 2018-10-16
OpenJDK Runtime Environment 18.9 (build 11.0.1+13)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 18.9 (build 11.0.1+13, mixed mode)

I have created SikuliX folder in /home/
root@scb-test-7:/home/SikuliX# pwd
/home/SikuliX

Initially I have placed the files required to install sikuli 1.1.4 version. Please see the details below:
root@scb-test-7:/home/SikuliX# ls
jdk-11.0.1
jython-standalone-2.7.1.jar
openjdk-11.0.1_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz
sikulixapi.jar
sikulix.jar

I have followed the below commands to install the sikulix.jar:
/home/SikuliX/jdk-11.0.1/bin/java -jar sikulix.jar -v

Here in this installation I have received the error "X11 DISPLAY variable was set".

Please find the installation log and the error:
root@scb-test-7:/home/SikuliX# /home/SikuliX/jdk-11.0.1/bin/java -jar sikulix.jar -v

To resolve the X11 DISPLAY variable requirement I have given the command "export DISPLAY=:1" prior to "/home/SikuliX/jdk-11.0.1/bin/java -jar sikulix.jar -v" as below:

Did you upload the Jython pack from the SikuliX Download page as mentioned there?

Revision history for this message
RaiMan (raimund-hocke) said : 		#3

 AppData: /root/.Sikulix

... not sure, why this is /root/ and not/ home/

Yes, I have uploaded the jython pack "jython-standalone-2.7.1.jar" from the sikulix download page as metioned.

AFter running the below command, .SikuliX is installed in the root directory.

root@scb-test-7:/home/SikuliX# /home/SikuliX/jdk-11.0.1/bin/java -jar sikulix.jar -v

Ok, I do not know the setup of Ubuntu on Azure, but in my Ubuntu 18.04 running in a VirtualBox locally, the .SikuliX folder is installed in the user's home directory.

Your situation at least looks odd, but I have no idea, wether this has something todo with your problem.

Try this: delete the folder .SikuliX and try again.

Uuups, sorry.

Deleting .SikuliX/Lib should be sufficient.

If you delete .SikuliX completely, you have to again add the Jython jar to the folder where you have the sikulix.jar

Hi Raiman,

I have delete the .Sikulix/Lib and again added the Jython jar to the folder having sikulix.jar.

Now am getting the following error:

be aware: More I cannot do for you.

If you do not succeed, an option is to try with SikuliX 1.1.3 or Ubuntu 18

Can you help with this problem?
