problem with headless linux installation

[blarg]

i'm trying to install altitude on a linux server with no gui in order to run the dedicated server. the installer suggests using the -c argument, but it has no effect:

queklain% sh altitude.sh -c
Starting Installer ...
Could not display the GUI. This application needs access to an X Server.
*******************************************************************
You can also run this application in console mode without
access to an X server by passing the argument -c
*******************************************************************

is there perchance a zipfile distribution i could use instead?

Have you solved this yet?
If not, what distro are you using?
The -c option works as expected for me under Arch.

this was on debian with openjdk 6. i never got it working, but i was able to work around it by having reeslo send me the extracted files from his server.

Same issue.

-bash-3.2$ ./altitude.sh 
Unpacking JRE ...
Starting Installer ...

you didn't use -c:

./altitude.sh -c

I did, yes. Read above.

I think the error is about a flag from something the binary script is starting.

Here are the files from a new Linux install if you want to see if it will work:
