I am just about finished with my first java application, and am in the
process of testing the deployment on a windows box as well as a UNIX box. I
have research / have created an executable jar file and attempted to execute
it in a UNIX environment and got the error below..I created the application
in JBuilder 8 personal..do I need to add a specific library to run this GUI?



Exception in thread "main" java.lang.InternalError: Can't connect to X11

server using ':0.0' as the value of the DISPLAY variable.

Try setting your DISPLAY environment variable to your IP address followed by
:0
That's how the X server figures out where to send the graphics for display.

It's telling you that it can't connect to the X server. There are a
couple of likely causes:
- you don't have X running (use command xinit or startx from the
   command line)
- the X server is running under a different user id; solution here
   is to allow connections using xhost +

you might also need to set the DISPLAY environment variable

	No, you just have to verify that your DISPLAY environment variable is 
set correctly, and that you're indeed running an X11 server on the 
system.  If you're running the application as a different user or on a 
different host, you may need to use the xhost command to ensure that 
host/user has permission to write to your display.

	If you have to, check with your system administrator.  This isn't a 
Java issue -- it's an issue with X server accessibility.  HTH!

I find it mush easier to ssh to the server and enable X tunneling. That 
sets up all the display stuff for you. Like this:

ssh -X root@1.2.3.4

Mind you, you still need an X server running on your PC, which is a bit 
tricky under windoze.

xhost + is a dangerous solution as it completely disables the limited 
security which X provides (unless you are on a single-user system not 
connected to any type of network when network security is irrelevent).
It's ok for a quick-and-dirty test to see if it cures the problem, but 
security should be enabled again immediately after the test.
