Sorry, don't about the tools that you are using. Please check with your IT team.
Wonder why you need to access a remote machine for the desktop tool (SoapUI)?

As this is a linux machine we need to do SSH. But basically as soon as we execute ./soapui.sh it should show graphical interface.. right

    If you want i can try to help but i'm not an expoert on RHEL or SOAPUI.

    What i think is SOAPUI need graphic interface. X11 is X server graphic interface

    In headless mode you cannot start graphics operation.

    You need a X11 server and/or a virtual display associated

    Check value of display:

    echo $DISPLAY

     

    Could you please try using xvfb-run to create a virtual display ?

    For example, xvfb-run -s "-screen 0 1024x768x24" "<your soap ui command>"

     

    To install xvfb please look at our friend g..gle..

     

    That all what i can do i'm afraid.

    Checked the java version and its installed. We would like to install the same via command mode. GUI is also not launched. We are using OS RHEL 7.7(Maipo).

    Please let me know in case if any more details are required.
