Can't run Weka explorer on Ubuntu 14.04

Question

I've read that there are only two steps needed to run Weka on linux, that is:

1. Add weka directory to CLASSPATH
2. Run java -jar weka.jar

After running above command I'm getting:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError
Caused by: java.awt.HeadlessException
    at java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment.checkHeadless(GraphicsEnvironment.java:207)
    at java.awt.Window.<init>(Window.java:535)

    at weka.gui.LogWindow.<init>(LogWindow.java:252)
    at weka.gui.GUIChooser.<clinit>(GUIChooser.java:215)

Does anyone have any clue what might be causing this?

我正在使用oracle的jdk并运行sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jre解决了我的问题。
