1.1.3.1 Failed to Connect to Server Error
If you receive an Xlib
error or a "Failed to connect to Server
" error when you are running OUI on the Solaris operating system, do the following:
- Define the following environment variable on the host computer where you are running OUI:
%setenv DISPLAY <machine name>:0.0
- Replace
<machine name>
with the name of the computer that will display OUI. - On the computer that will display OUI, enter the following
command, which allows other computers to display information on the
computer monitor:
%xhost +
- Rerun the
runInstaller.sh
script after you have set theDISPLAY
environment variable.
Note:
You can run OUI without specifying theDISPLAY
variable by running in silent mode using a response file.
