[izpack-users] Error while installing my dist on Linux

[Vinay Hattangadi]

Hi,

I have created an installer using IZPack v3.8.1 and the installation jar 
works on windows os. But when I tried to install it on Linux, I get the 
following error:

****************** exception encountered is 
*********************************
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.InternalError: Can't connect to X11 
window server using ':0.0' as the value of the DISPLAY variable.
