Display Error or Xhost + not working

When using remote terminals the default DISPLAY is not <server name>:0.0.
This causes issues when the installer is run.

To fix this, log into your remote terminal as root, and check your DISPLAY setting (+echo $DISPLAY+). This may come back with :1.0, etc.
Run the following commands:
xhost <+server name+)
export DISPLAY= server name:1.0 (or 2.0, or whatever octetstring the earlier DISPLAY command returned)
xhost +

Now login as the oracle user.
Set DISPLAY as above
