Is this the IP of your Database Server or IP of the Workstation from which you are trying to install Oracle.
see this
| Quote: |
Set your DISPLAY variable to the IP address of your X server plus the X server and screen numbers. If you are working from a workstation (and not the console of the database server where you are installing Oracle) do not accidentally set the DISPLAY variable to the IP address of your database server. You can set your DISPLAY variable with a command like:
$ export DISPLAY=myworkstation:0.0
If you are not using the console of the database server, then ensure that the X server on your workstation will allow your database server to open windows on your display. The easiest way to do this is to issue an xhost command from a session on your workstation. (Don’t get confused and issue the command in a window that is logged onto your database server.) You can issue a command like:
$ xhost +mydatabaseserver

Hi Tarun,
Thanks for your quick reply.
tarun :
Set your DISPLAY variable to the IP address of your X server plus the X server and screen numbers. If you are working from a workstation (and not the console of the database server where you are installing Oracle) do not accidentally set the DISPLAY variable to the IP address of your database server. You can set your DISPLAY variable with a command like:
$ export DISPLAY=myworkstation:0.0
Pratap : i am using telnet
telnet <ip of database server>
login as oracle/oracle
IP of my machine is 10.31.222.100
i tried
$ export DISPLAY=10.31.222.100:0.0
and after dbca command got the error
$ dbca
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError
Does it indicates anything to do with ClassPath?
Thanks and Regards,
Pratap

One more question ,
--> what is your workstation configuration, is it a windows machine or a *Unix machine ?
and one more hit in the dark ,
what happens if you don't set the Display variable for your workstation and run the command dbca . i mean to say , does it opens a window on the database server ( can you crosscheck) ?
regards,
tarun

I think here lies the problem ,
You need an emulator like Hummingbird Exceed for doing a remote installation on a *UNIX machine . Here i mean to say that you cannot install from windows to *UNIX using a GUI unless you have some emulator software .
All you need is an emulator installed on windows machine and set DISPLAY variable for your windows machine.
You can download the S/W from this site .
regards,
tarun

Sorry, if I am interpreting it wrongly.
You are having Oracle server installed on unix box.
Accessing that box using putty from your windows machine
& want to run the dbca interface utility on your unix system while logging in from the windows system.
If this is the case, then you need to enable xwindows session from the client side. Tools like Hummingbird provides this feature.
Also, not only setting the DISPlay is required, but alse needed is enabling the xwindows session & adding the entry of this windows Mcahines IP/name is to ACL on unix machine. using command xhost +<IP of local machine>.
