I'm guessing the problem is that:
1) your IP is not 200.9.176.121 and so your DISPLAY variable isn't set correctly,
or 2) you're logged into the machine as one user (like pmarino) but you're trying to install as another user (like oracle).

It is more than likely #2. Easily solved. Go to an xterm (or other terminal) where you're logged in as pmarino and type "xhost +". This will allow anybody to open an X window on your monitor.

Then, try runInstaller again.
