This is unix-rebol/view needs a running x-server which it can connect
to.
It tries to setup some stuff vor /view and cannot connect.
(you see 'size-text fails, which needs font-information and that)
Even if you run on x-windows and start a script on apache,
it may fail, since apache may run it as user 'wwwrun or that,
which cannot connect to the X startet for yourself.
On a server you should choose rebol/core,
that works X-less.
