I finally found the problem; I connected from PuTTY-ssh as root user, then changed user with “su - frank” and launched this error. The solution is to connect directly with the frank user from PuTTY-ssh.
Happy day.
Linked the file / home / user / .Xauthority in root. I connect via PuTTY-SSH and Xming is active. PuTTY is configured with “Enable X11 forwarding” and “X display location: localhost: 0.0 or 127.0.0.1:0.0”. Everything seems correct. I installed google-chrome on my server, but when I run the “google-chrome-stable” or “google-chrome” commands it throws this error. What is going wrong?
