Xming window not showing (Solaris/Windows)

I am trying to launch an install wizard window from a Solaris 9 system on my Windows 7 host to install Sybase ASE but the window won't show.

I am using Putty, with X11 forwarding enabled, and Xming on my Windows host. I am getting no error from the Solaris system. It just says Running InstallShield Wizard... and on my Windows, when I try to exit Xming it says There are currently 1 clients connected.

enter image description here

So clearly, my Solaris is connected to Xming, but I can't see the window.

You have to allow the solaris server to connect to the XMING config file by adding the server IP Address in the file X0.hosts (XMING install folder) then restart the XMING server on your PC. If it still does not work, try running "xhosts +" from Solaris command and export DISPLAY=your_server_IP_Address:0.0.
