Xvfb not found on your system

Question

I try to use Xvfb to make the headless code run. However, I encountered the problem that "Xvfb not found on your system" when I tried to run my ruby code. Then I tried to install Xvfb using

sudo apt-get install xvfb

However, "apt-get: command not found" is showed. Thus, I have not idea what should be installed to avoid the original Xvfb error. Any helps? Thank you.

sudo apt-get install xvfb helped me in this case. You should investigate why you can't access apt-get. – Nika

Answer 1

Old question, but found it will trying to find the apt-get commands. The command not found is likely because you are not on a debian system. So you should probably be using yum.

In CentOS 7, the following command will install it:

$ sudo yum install xorg-x11-server-Xvfb
