Connect to Ubuntu Server with Putty + Xming

Navigation
2

I'm connecting my server to Putty trying to use Xming to display GUI elements but unfortunately I'm not getting it. Whenever I try to run a command line program it returns me the errors.

NOTE: X11 option in Putty is active

Firefox:

  

Error: GDK_BACKEND does not match available displays

GEdit:

  

Error: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set in the environment.

So I kept thinking, does it have to have a graphical interface for Xming to work?

Yes, you need to install the relevant packages. By default, VPS images are not instantiated with them.

Following this reference xming + putty , it looks like you have to set Enable X11 Forwarding e set X11 display location with localhost:0.0 , as shown. That way, your terminal will have the correct environment variables.

Ifyoucontinuetohavetroubleloadinggraphicalprograms,youcantrythisstackexchange response . What would be setting the environment variable DISPLAY=localhost:0 .
