install PTC workgroup manager on AIX

[proeaix53]

Hi,

I am a Pro-E user who has been reassigned to admin of our PDM and DB servers (both AIX) and have no background in this sort of stuff. I am learning though. Please excuse me if I ask completely low level questions, but I am a beginner.

Now to the question.

I am trying to install PTC ECAD workgroup manager on our AIX server and am having some trouble. The instructions I am trying to follow, located here, (ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/software/plm/resources/windchill_v9_install_aix.pdf)
tell me to cd to this dir

/ptc/Install/PTC_solution/installer_090_m040 (on our setup)

and then issue this command

./setup

this is supposed to bring up a gui type install interface but I am getting an error as follows

The DISPLAY variable is not set
Either set it or use the -help option for more information.

so then I do #./setup -help and get this

Usage: ./setup [ -display unix:0 ] [ LAX_VM /path/to/suitable/java.1.5.x/jre/bin/java ]

I know this is very low level stuff, so please be gentle.

ok so I entered
#./setup -display unix:0 and got this
setting DISPLAY to: 'unix:0'
