Hello Experts,

I am installing oracle for the first time on Linux machine. I have to install oracle 11 for BO 4.0 . While running INSTALLERCHECK it is giving error that display environment is not set. I tried to run on the linux machine taking console and run xhost + but it is giving error No protocol specified

and xhost: unable to open display ":0.0".

I am new for this. can someone help me in setting this.

Hello,

As you are using putty you can try X11 forwarding option with Xming

Hello Rahul K,

You can use a program to access to your machine with ssh.

I recomend you Mobax terminal.

With this program you can see in the top of the initial window the variable DISPLAY that you have to export in your users to can run one installer, like runinstaller of Oracle.

And later you can use a shell for the display:

bash

export DISPLAY=<Display showed in the top of mobax temrinal>

./runinstaller

On linux server with console i tried,

3) export DISPLAY

4) xhost +
