How to run iServer Express on Debian?

Hi,

The steps described in the documentation section of this site do not work for Debian (there is an error about XVFBDISPLAY).

Can you provide the steps to run iServer Express (evaluation version) on Debian?

Is your Debian server running X Windows, or is it a headless Linux box? 
 
If it is a headless Linux box, I would recommend installing Xvfb. This will provide the graphics capabilities required to generate reports. You can read more about the Xvfb package for Debian at <a class='bbc_url' href='http://packages.debian.org/unstable/x11/xvfb'>http://packages.debian.org/unstable/x11/xvfb</a>

My Debian machine runs on X Window (using Window Maker window manager). What are the steps should I follow?

I am able to run iServer Express on my debian machine successfully

The problem is solved by installing xvfb package on my machine and then making a link in /opt/ArSever/xvfb/bin/Xvfb (which points) to the location of installed Xvfb on my machine.

Thanks for all your suggestions.
