X11 Windows Server using 0.0 as Display variable

807559Oct 10 2001 — edited Aug 8 2002
Hi,

I am running Solaris 8 on Sparc. I get an exception while trying to run a java program (which is trying to start an applet). I modified the .profile file and added
DISPLAY=10.0.0.5:0.0
export DISPLAY

But this does not help

When i try echo $DISPLAY I get nothing.
Where else I need to make changes ? Will appreciate any help.

The detailed exception is :

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.InternalError: Can't connect to X11 window
server using ':0.0' as the value of the DISPLAY variable.
