Hey @moanra Can you give us more information? How did you set this up? What operating system are you using?

suzil commented 4 years ago

It looks like you are on Windows, so you need to have an X server running in order to access the xhost command. I don't know much about Windows, but you could try to use Cygwin.

Cygwin/X consists of an X server, X libraries, and nearly all of the standard X clients, such as xterm, xhost, xdpyinfo, xclock, xeyes, etc. Many more X programs are also packaged for Cygwin. See also the features and screenshots pages.

That said,

Currently Windows is not supported (see https://github.com/openworm/OpenWorm/issues/263); you will need Mac OS or Linux (or a virtual environment on Windows that runs either of those).

There have been some helper scripts for Windows added recently (build.cmd and run.cmd, see https://github.com/openworm/OpenWorm/pull/294) in the development branch (https://github.com/openworm/OpenWorm/tree/development) and these work fine for running the simulation & generating the movie. Could some others test?

Fixed by adding windows specific scripts
