unable to open display localhost:0.0 in VMware RedHat linux machine

178210Jan 5 2007 — edited Feb 28 2007

I have been trying to Install Oracle 10g RAC in VMware linux virtual machine.

my virtual machines are running properly and I am able to use RSH & SSH.

when I run runInstaller it is not comming up due to DISPLAY environmental variable setup.

I have set the varable as follows
DISPLAY=localhost:0.0; export DISPLAY

then if i execute xhost + it gives the following error
"xhost: unable to open display localhost:0.0"

I have tried with ipaddress instead of localhost. Eventhen it is giving the same error

What is the problem? How I can solve the issue?
