Oracle Home installation DISPLAY error on linux

username2016May 28 2016 — edited May 30 2016

Hi All,

I am running runInstaller from putty and facing the below error on LINUX 6.x. I have Reflecitonx running on my local machine to enable GUI when using putty for installation. I did export DISPLAY using the below command. No xming, VNC or any other options for GUI. I have rpms (xorg-x11-xauth*) installed. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

export DISPLAY=local_machine_IP:0

./runInstaller

Starting Oracle Universal Installer...

    >>> Could not execute auto check for display colors using command /usr/bin/xdpyinfo. Check if the DISPLAY variable is set.    Failed <<<<

Some requirement checks failed. You must fulfill these requirements before

continuing with the installation,

Continue? (y/n) [n]

Thanks

Ranganadh.
