Firefox is not displaying / running on OS console

Hi all,
I am running RHEL 5.5 on non prond and production environment.Everuy time i tried to access firefox from the OS Console getting error
# firefox
Error: no display specified

but no problem while accessing firefox from terminal. only error prompted while accesing from RHEL CONSOLE.

Please help

i a m trying to find what is exact cause for this.... is any dependent package is causing the error?? ...
what is probable solution for error....:-(

How do you access the console? Directly or over ssh? Firefox needs xserver support, as well as xclock.

The solution would be for you to have X server software running on your local workstation, and for you to export your DISPLAY variable on the remote server to the IP address of your local workstation. You do this AFTER you allow incoming X sessions on your local workstation.

Much like your other thread:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...lz-4175513567/

...this has the same cause/solution. Also, these are NOT 'urgent' issues, so asking for/expecting volunteers to hurry up and help you is fairly rude. Also, since you're using Red Hat ENTERPRISE, you are PAYING FOR RHEL, RIGHT???? Have you called their support, since you're paying for it???
