Troubleshooting the DOORS installation

Use these topics to troubleshoot your IBM® Engineering Requirements Management DOORS® (DOORS) installation.
DOORS API and sockets
The DOORS API only works with TCP/IP communication. Socket-based communication in Linux is not supported.
Colors
Display cards that support only 256 colors might result in unusual color effects.
DISPLAY variables for all Linux installations
The X display must be specified with the DISPLAY environment variable. Using the standard -display or -d options does not work.
Dual boot machines
If you have a dual boot machine and DOORS is installed on one of the operating systems you cannot install it on the other operating system as well.
