Hello,

I tried the command: rosrun rviz rviz on the webshell, but I cannot open the rviz window. Can anyone help me to solve the problem? Thx.

rosrun rviz rviz

Hi,
I assume you may not run roscore before running the command?

run roscore in another terminal and try again.

roscore

If this is not the solution, please share the error message so we can understand more about the problem

Hi,
I tried in terminal 1:
user:~$ roscore

After running the rviz command, it should open up automatically. However, if it does not, you can manually open it by clicking on the Graphical Tools icon in the bottom bar:

That means there is nothing to show in Rviz. Is your simulation running?

If a simulation is running, then which course or specific rosject are you working on? If rosject, can you share a link to the rosject?
