Can't connect to X11 window server using ':0.0'

I´m trying to install sap system on Linux platform. I declare the environment variable DISPLAY to my localhost. But I get this message error:

Java.lang.RuntimeException: invocation target exception: Can't connect to X11 window server using ':0.0' as the value of the DISPLAY variable.

at com.sap.sdt.util.misc.BootStrapper.start(BootStrapper.java:107)

If I want to make the remote installation from a windows Pc, what are the commands that I have to executed and which order??

I only execute ./sapinst and get the next paragraph

andromed:/media/cdrom/IM_SLM7.0/IM_LINUX_I386 # ./sapinst

extracting... done!

Hi Rueben,

You might also need emulator software. We use XMing which is freely available and easy to setup. Once you have that running and the DISPLAY variable set then it should work.

are you logged on to the graphical GUI to that box? If yes, then DISPLAY is already set correctly.

hi.

try to set the environment variable DISPLAY with the IP-address of the workstation you want to use. Start the X11 Window after that once more.

Hi Ruben,

This is usually an issue with JDK installed on the server.

Please check the version of JDK whether its compatible with OS and SAP Version.

Hope this helps.

Best Regards
