Oracle11g installation on Solaris 10

I am installing Oravcle 11G on Solaris 10 on a local sun machine. I have followed all the pre-req steps provided in oracle documentation but after all that when im trying to run the installer using oracle user. The installer checks pre-reqs and gives me the following error:

checking monitor: must be configured to display at 256 colors. couldnot execute autocheck for display colors using command /usr/openwin/bin/xdpyinfo. Check if dsiplay variables are set

to set Dispay variable i used the following command: $DISPLAY=localhost:0.0 export DISPLAY

If i continue the installation by ignoring this error, it says:

Preparing to launch universal installer from /tmp/OraInstall2012-07-12_05-57-10PM. Please wait...$ Xlib: connection to "localhost:0.0" refused by server Xlib: Client is not authorised to connect to server.

Please not that im performing the installation locally on sun server.

open unix terminal login as root

open another terminal login as oracle user $xclock

you should be able to see clock display. The you are good to run runInstaller.sh

1) Log on to XWindows as root 2) Open a terminal 3) enter 'xhost +' 4) enter 'su - oracle' 5) enter 'export DISPLAY=:0.0' 6) runInstaller (or use whatever installer is required)

Just close the root session and log in back as oracle user, then issue xclock command, you should see the graphic clock appear. that means ok, so you can now run ./runinstaller command in order to install oracle software.

good luck
