Description
I was trying to get arduino working from the terminal when I realized
trying to call arduino from terminal only resulted in a message saying it isn't currently installed
~/arduino-1.6.11⟫ arduino
The program 'arduino' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
sudo apt install arduino
When you do it with ./ it works (other than the problem with X stuff)
~/arduino-1.6.11⟫ ./arduino
Picked up JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError
Caused by: java.awt.HeadlessException:
No X11 DISPLAY variable was set, but this program performed an operation which requires it.
at java.awt.SplashScreen.getSplashScreen(SplashScreen.java:117)
at processing.app.Base.<clinit>(Base.java:92)`
Even when I ran the install script
~/arduino-1.6.11⟫ sudo ./install.sh
Adding desktop shortcut, menu item and file associations for Arduino IDE... done!
~/arduino-1.6.11⟫ arduino
The program 'arduino' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
sudo apt install arduino
I also did this without the sudo and got the same results.
The workaround I found is adding the ./ into the script provided by this manpage
#!/bin/bash Xvfb :1 -nolisten tcp -screen :1 1280x800x24 & xvfb="$!" DISPLAY=:1 ./arduino "$@" kill -9 $xvfb`
