I have tried to install the Xvfb on red-hat 6.5 using
yum -y install xorg-x11-server-Xvfb
but it is not installed and it is giving msg that
No package xorg-x11-server-Xvfb available.
Error: Nothing to do
Plese help me to install Xvfb on Redhat 6.5 to remove the headless exception in the Applet.
Thanks.
Description: Xvfb (X Virtual Frame Buffer) is an X server that is able to run on machines with no display hardware and no physical input devices. Xvfb simulates a dumb framebuffer using virtual memory. Xvfb does not open any devices, but behaves otherwise as an X display. Xvfb is normally used for testing servers.
The xorg-x11-server-Xvfb
package is officially available from RedHat for RHEL 6 and RHEL 7 under the Optional channel (RHEL Workstation Optional, or RHEL Server Optional).
From the comments: To enable the optional repo: subscription-manager repos --enable rhel-7-server-optional-rpms
and then you can install the package with yum install xorg-x11-server-Xvfb
I was able to download the RPM and then install it locally after reading this article
wget http://vault.centos.org/6.2/os/x86_64/Packages/xorg-x11-server-Xvfb-1.10.4-6.el6.x86_64.rpm
yum localinstall xorg-x11-server-Xvfb-1.10.4-6.el6.x86_64.rpm
