A couple of problems (missing x11 libraries and fonts) when installing HammerDB to test my Oracle 12c Centos 6 / RHEL 6 server i.e. not really setup with GUI access in mind.
I setup x11 forwarding and tested in via xclock first.

My first hammerdb error was
[oracle@ora12c66 hammerora-2.6]$ ./hammerora.tcl
wish8.5: error while loading shared libraries: libXss.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I got passed this error by installing
sudo yum install libXScrnSaver
The next problem was
[oracle@ora12c66 hammerora-2.6]$ ./hammerora.tcl
Error in startup script: failed to allocate font due to internal system font engine problem
(default value for "-font" in widget ".title")
invoked from within
"label .title -text " Hammerora v2.6 by smshaw@users.sourceforge.net " -font $mid -bg $gbg -fg red3 -padx 0"
(in namespace eval "::LoadingProgressMeter" script line 481)
invoked from within
"namespace eval LoadingProgressMeter {
set max 14
wm title . "Loading Hammerora"
wm protocol . WM_DELETE_WINDOW {#Do no..."
(file "./hammerora.tcl" line 53)
I got passed this by installing:
sudo yum install xorg-x11-fonts*
and voila … I am into the HammerDB GUI :)
