To analyze the data I receive, I utilize a Docker container provided by my job. All of the commands within the container function flawlessly, with the exception of gv/gs.

Whenever I attempt to display a .ps file, I receive an error message stating unable to display.

While searching for a solution to this issue online, I come across numerous discussions regarding an X11 server and SSH connections, but I fail to see how they might be relevant to my problem.

It's important to note that I am not using SSH; rather, I am working within a Linux container.

Just to clarify, the problem is not the absence of gv/gs or related software for viewing postscript files. I have indeed installed the necessary software, but when I employ the respective commands, I consistently encounter the error message unable to display.

If anyone has any insights or suggestions regarding this matter, I would greatly appreciate your assistance!

I'm new to using containers/Linux but have recently had to pick it up for my job. To analyse the data I get, I use a Docker container my job provided me. All of the commands in the container work perfectly EXCEPT gv/gs. Whenever I try to display a .ps file, it tells me "unable to display". When I try to find a solution to this problem online, there's a lot being said about an X11 server and ssh'ing, but I can't seem to see how that might apply to my problem. I'm not ssh'ing, it's a Linux container.

Just for clarity's sake-- the problem isn't that gv/gs etc. aren't installed. I have installed the software to view postscript files, but when I use the commands it gives me the error message 'unable to display'.

If anyone has any idea what it could be, I'd really appreciate it! Thanks!
