RE: Can't connect to X11 ... sometimes

[Potts, David]

Sounds like an OS issue, what is the value for the DISPLAY environmental variable ?   Have you changed user id ?  the xterminal  belongs to a given user, if you switch you user id, you will no longer be able to connect. The next time it happens, try the command xhost +, this will disable all security checking, it will prove if the issue is a permissions problem.     Note using the xhost command in this way, is a bit like not having a password on your login account.   D. -----Original Message----- From: Paul Gabare [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 09 October 2003 11:28 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Can't connect to X11 ... sometimes   Hello, I'am using FOP 0.20.4 to create PDF with svg graphics in a servlet context on Unix or Linux (Jdk 1.3.1).
