Headless installation - display error #1

Open Bigun opened 2 years ago

I have the dependencies installed and the logs in place. I run python3 client.py and get an error:

cowrie@SSHHoneypot-ct:~/cowrie-log-analyzer$ python3 client.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/cowrie/cowrie-log-analyzer/client.py", line 38, in <module> main() File "/home/cowrie/cowrie-log-analyzer/client.py", line 24, in main root = tk.Tk() File "/usr/lib/python3.9/tkinter/__init__.py", line 2270, in __init__ self.tk = _tkinter.create(screenName, baseName, className, interactive, wantobjects, useTk, sync, use) _tkinter.TclError: no display name and no $DISPLAY environment variable

I'm assuming this requires X to work? If it does, a feature request is to somehow display the data in plain text.

Thanks for your comment @Bigun .Yes, a WM environment is required for the tkinter module to work correctly. I hear the suggestion for a CLI option though and can look at adding a plain text display to the shell.
