Problem:
Cobol program's being animated using COBSW= A set will not start up in the animator, but will just execute.
Resolution:
This problem can be caused by the environment variable DISPLAY being set.
When the DISPLAY environment variable is set the Server Express product will try to create a new X-Term window for the Animator screen and user interface. If the user is not using an X-Windows session, this operation fails and the Animator screen is never displayed.
Ensure that the environment varaible DISPLAY is not set. If DISPLAY is set, unset and then animate.
example:
echo $DISPLAY
DISPLAY="information"
unset DISPLAY
