Cannot open display on server

[Kasper Johansen-2]

Hi group.

I am writing a server/client-application, which does not use any kind of
Gtk-windows or anything like that.

However I am using the gtk-lib to handel events from sockets and stuff
like that. The application is working, but I am unable to use it on a
server with no X-server installed.

Is there any way to keep the gtk-lib from crashing the whole application
when trying to load it from a shell? Like making this crashing error
into a non-crashing notice or something and still be able to use the
Gtk-events from sockets? As said before, I dont use any windows or
widgets anyway.

As soon as you use the php-gtk extension, the underlying classes try to
connect to the X server. There is nothing we can do about this.

Short: no php-gtk on x-less environments.

you may have a look at xvfb but you will certainly need to give the
correct rights to the user that execute the script (probably apache or
nobody i gess)
hope this help,

best regards,
