I had problems running Exceed XWindows and the 9i V2 installer - turned out the TCP/IP stack on my W2K system was fubar'd - uninstalled, reinstalled TCP/IP then I could run the installer and X-Window.

Apparently there are some problems running eXceed and Oracle 9i V2 Oracle installer. I went back to using a Xwindows from a Unix console to do the install. Now I am trying to find a way to run dbca from Windows for Unix database - must be a way - huh.

Is "clientip" the Unix server or or [Windows] client ? If it is the Unix server, you need to run "xhost +<hostnameofmachineyouarerunningtherunInstalleron>" e.g. if you have logged in to the Unix server through a telnet session and set DISPLAY=client:0.0, prior to do so, you must run "xhost +clientip" from your Unix server X console.

If "clientip" is your Windows client, you must be running Reflection X [or eXceed ?] on your PC --- I am talking of the X-server program, not the telnet client. Hemant

Guys,

I followed the instructions but still got: Xlib: connection to "clientip:0.0" refused by server

Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server        
xhost:  unable to open display "clientip:0.0"

I think I am missing one of the e-mails. Tried running to root, changing exceed configuration (xfile). Do I need to just do this at console?

Agreed Jared. I was playing the percentages for the sake of a quick, clear answer. In my experience most of the time it's going to be root.

Cheers,
Mike

Mike,

Not necessarily.

It depends on who started the Xsession.

I regularly run 'xhost' on my workstation as a non-root user.

Root is unable to do so on the same machine.

Hi,

you'll need to be signed in as root in order to run the "xhost +" command. The rest of that looks fine so :

as root :
xhost +

as oracle_user :
export DISPLAY=<PC Client IP address>:0.0 xclock (to test yopur X config)

NB Exceed has its own array of bugs when used with the Oracle installer. Good luck and I hope the 9i instaler handles Exceed better.

regards,
Mike Hately
