I try to install interactively oracle patch for version 10.2.0.2

I runt the ./runInstaller command and then I receive the error below:

Can't connect to X11 window server using '192.168.2.35:0.0' as the value of the
DISPLAY variable.
192.168.2.35:0.0
192.168.2.35:0.0
OUI-10025:Unable to start an interactive install session because of the followin
g error:Can't connect to X11 window server using '192.168.2.35:0.0' as the value
of the DISPLAY variable. The DISPLAY environment variable should be set to <hos
tname or IP address>:<screen>, where the <screen> is usually '0.0'.
OUI-10026:Depending on the Unix Shell, you can use one of the following commands
as examples to set the DISPLAY environment variable:
- For csh: % setenv DISPLAY 192.168.1.128:0.0
- For sh, ksh and bash: $ DISPLAY=192.168.1.128:0.0; export DISPLAY
Use the following command to see what shell is being used:
echo $SHELL
Use the following command to view the current DISPLAY environment variable setti
ng:
echo $DISPLAY
- Make sure that client users are authorized to connect to the X Server.
OUI-10027:To enable client users to access the X Server, open an xterm, dtterm o
r xconsole as the user that started the session and type the following command:
% xhost +
To test that the DISPLAY environment variable is set correctly, run a X11 based
program that comes with the native operating system such as 'xclock':
% <full path to xclock... see below>
If you are not able to run xclock successfully, please refer to your PC-X Server
or OS vendor for further assistance.
Typical path for 'xclock': '/usr/X11R6/bin/xclock'



Do you have any idea?
Any help will be really appreciated..

Thanks,
Maria

I tried as root user
linux@root]# xhost +

I received:
-bash: xhost: command not found


I tried as oracle user
linux@oracle]$ export DISPLAY=192.168.1.128:0.0

I received the same error described in my previous post



I tried as oracle user "export DISPLAY ":0.0""

I received:
-bash: export DISPLAY :0.0: command not found


Please help me because I am completely unfamiliar with those issues..

Hi,
you problem explanation give solution.

go through below procedure.
1.First check which shell is you used.
linux@oracle]$echo $SHELL
if above statement show bash or sh or ksh then set your display enviourment variable like
linux@oracle]$DISPLAY=192.168.1.128:0.0; export DISPLAY

if your default shell is "CSH"
linux@oracle]$setenv DISPLAY 192.168.1.128:0.0
----------------------------------------------------------

I checked which shell I'm used and as you can see it is "bash"
[oracle@localhost Disk1]$ echo $SHELL
/bin/bash

then I typed:
[oracle@localhost Disk1]$ DISPLAY=192.168.1.128:0.0; export DISPLAY
[oracle@localhost Disk1]$ ./runInstaller
and unfortunately I get the same error message Sad


May you need to send you more information?

Please, do you have any idea?

Thanks,
Maria

The error message:
-bash: xhost: command not found

means that something necessary is not installed or there are no sufficient privilleges?

You should be able to follow this process (Configuring the oracle User's Environment) to ensure proper configuration. It appears that your PATH variable isn't set correctly.

Read The Fine Manual below

http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/install.102/b15660/toc.htm

& follows what it says to do.
Be assured that RTFM has worked for many, many, many folks.

If you can't make Oracle work, switch to using Access.

I agree that this is not an oracle question, but I can get the xclock to work fine but the runInstaller for oracle still prints out the same error message.

Any other ideas?

thanks

It can't be "the same" error message, since then you would be installing Oracle in the past.

Also, there are a dozen different error messages in the thread, which one exactly do you get? Post the EXACT output of the

set

./runInstaller


commands.
