SoapUI installation on a server without GUI

Hello,

is it possible to install soapUI on a linux server that has no GUI? Running it on my local PC from the comand line works fine, so i want to move it to the server and have it running from there, so i want to install it there w/o GUI. Unpacking the tar on the server just does not let me start it:

loadtestrunner.sh: line 29: -cp: command not found
================================

= SOAPUI_HOME = /

================================
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/eviware/soapui/tools/SoapUILoadTestRunner

Could not find the main class: com.eviware.soapui.tools.SoapUILoadTestRunner. Program will exit.


Any idea how to solve this?

Thanks a lot !!!

    hi, which version are you using?
    it is possible to run soapui without gui support. Usually it requires to set some options to disable UI features in soapui.
    The options name have changed in soapui 5.0
