Hi,
I am using windows and connect to a linux server over a VPN. On the linux server I initiate a screen and start an idl session in the screen. My idl script takes several hours and whenever I want to access and use idl session, I login to linux sever and go to the screen and reach the idl session.

'Sometimes' I get this error when I execute any idl script in the IDL session that is in the screen.

Compiled module: $MAIN$.
% WINDOW: Unable to connect to X Windows display: localhost:10.0
% WINDOW: Unable to open X Windows display.
Is your DISPLAY environment variable set correctly?
% Execution halted at: $MAIN$ 1
/net/orbit/home/idlscriptname.pro
o
the idlscriptname.pro does not open any x terminal. It is just a bunch of idl lines.


If I restart the IDL session then everything works fine again until the next error message that can happen anytime when I login to the linux sever again.
Any solutions.
Gompie
