Shouldn't it be sending messages to the client and then the client making the pics? How do you plan to deal with 10 queries running simultaneously on a server at the other side of the world. I'm not even running an X-server on my database server... Anyway, the database server doesn't have permissions to access the X server, that's the error. > Can someone suggest a method to integrate this GTK code into postgres > and solve this problem.

Um - don't you want to be doing this in the client, not in the backend? -- Richard Huxton Archonet Ltd
What are you doing? Trying to run the GTK application in the same server as
the database?
Or are you trying to do a graphical interface in a server without an X
server?. I guess there is something very bad with your approach, I guess
your graphical interface should be running in the client side NOT in the
server side.

Hi
We are trying to implement a progress estiamator for long queries. We
are trying to make the display graphical using GTK but we get an error
saying
Xlib : Connection to ":0.0" refused by server
xlib : no protocol specified
GTK-warning ** : Cannot open display
Can someone suggest a method to integrate this GTK code into postgres
and solve this problem.
Thanks and Regards
