Hi, I have to make a plot of the following formula

x,y=var('x, y')
plot3d((x^2)*y-x*y+x*y^3,0,5)

but I obtain error message

/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/sage/plot/plot3d/parametric_plot3d.py\ :704: DeprecationWarning: Unnamed ranges for more than one variable is deprecated and will be removed from a future release of Sage; you can used named ranges instead, like (x,0,2) See http://trac.sagemath.org/7008 for details. g, ranges = setup_for_eval_on_grid(f, [urange,vrange], plot_points) Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError Caused by: java.awt.HeadlessException: No X11 DISPLAY variable was set, but this program performed an operation which requires it. at sun.awt.HeadlessToolkit.getScreenSize(HeadlessToolkit.java:284) at org.openscience.jmol.app.jmolpanel.JmolPanel.<clinit>(JmolPanel.ja\ va:173) /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/sage/repl/rich_output/display_manager\ .py:570: RichReprWarning: Exception in _rich_repr_ while displaying object: Jmol failed to create file '/home/sage/.sage/temp/host/1582/dir_0OP2db/preview.png', see '/home/sage/.sage/temp/host/1582/tmp_4sBlqC.txt' for details RichReprWarning, Graphics3d Object</clinit>

Given that your second error is the problem one (something where your Java isn't working), please give us more information about your setup - command line, notebook, distro, etc? Likely you really don't have an X11 "Xwindows" display going on.

As the deprecation warning says, you have to use names ranges like (x,0,2) to say that x belongs to the interval [0,2], and the same for y. The following works for me:

sage: x,y=var('x, y')
....: plot3d((x^2)*y-x*y+x*y^3,(x,0,5),(y,0,5))

EDIT If the problem comes from java, you can run your command from a notebook, a javascript version of jmol will be used.
