Anish (Bug 58569):
Hi

I am trying to run jmeter-2.13 in my Fedora 22. I have already installed Oracle java and have configure in jmeter.sh to look at it.

cat jmeter.sh
JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.8.0_45
export JAVA_HOME

When I open jmeter in a terminal, I get

[anishjp@fedora22 bin]$ ./jmeter
An error occurred: null
[anishjp@fedora22 bin]$ cat jmeter.log

My DISPLAY env also looks fine.

[anishjp@fedora22 bin]$ echo $DISPLAY
localhost:0
[anishjp@fedora22 bin]$

What could be wrong?

Severity: normal
