Hi @CarineRey ,

I run the PCOC on a Linux system without graphic interface and I will get error when I run the command:

python /xieduo/software/pcoc/src/pcoc_num_tree.py -t Schenk.nw -o num_tree.pdf
ETE: cannot connect to X server

So my question is whether this software can only work on the system with graphic interface and it cannot operate successfully on my command-only Linux (centos 6.9)system.

Best, Duo

Hello, Yes, PCOC uses ETE which needs a X server for some functions but normally just for plot option. Regards, Carine

Hi @CarineRey ,

I open a X sever on my PC and then the plot can work well , thank you!
