“Could not connect to any X display” with gnuplot (Ubuntu for windows)
I have installed the Ubuntu extension for Windows, but I run into troubles when I want to use gnuplot...
I am just trying to plot a simple data file, but I get the following error :
QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-julien_barbaud'
qt.qpa.screen: QXcbConnection: Could not connect to display
Could not connect to any X display.
Could not connect to existing gnuplot_qt. Starting a new one.
QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to
'/tmp/runtime-julien_barbaud'
qt.qpa.screen: QXcbConnection: Could not connect to display
Could not connect to any X display.
As you may guess, I am not veryfamiliar with this problem. Is there Something I should set up in my environment to fix this ?
EDIT: after the suggestion in comments, I tried to use set term postscript. The output is different, but still no plot...
And after trying set term png, the plot command gives me this:
display environment-variables qt gnuplot

It looks like you're not running under an X window environment. Perhaps you should installgnuplot-nox - Command-line driven interactive plotting program. No-X package

Thanks for your suggestion. However, I did install gnuplot-nox (sudo apt install gnuplot-nox) before trying to run the programm. I also installed gnuplot-qt right after

What is the output ofshow term(at the gnuplot prompt)? In the absence of an X server, you may need to set the terminal type to something that writes directly to file e.g.set term postscriptorset term png

I could solve my problem by downloading Xming on my Windows system, so that linux can access X11
The qt terminal works well in this condition.
Thanks for the help !
